Countesthorpe Community College is larger than the average secondary school with a sixth form. The proportion of students supported by the pupil premium is well below the national average. This additional government funding is for students who are looked after by the local authority, or known to be eligible for free school meals. In this report, this group of students is described as disadvantaged. The proportion of disabled students and those who have special educational needs is lower than average. The large majority of students are of White British heritage. A small number of students studies part-time work-related courses at Trans4m, Gaz Autos or Pedestrian. The college organises and manages alternative provision for the South Leicestershire Behaviour Partnership. This includes full-time courses for some students on the Countesthorpe Community College site, part-time provision at a range of alternative education providers, and behaviour outreach support for other schools within the partnership. The college meets the government’s current floor standards, which are the minimum expectations for students’ attainment and progress in English and mathematics by the end of Year 11. The governors have made a joint proposal with the governors of Leysland High School to the Department for Education. This proposal, if accepted, would result in the closure of both schools and the opening of a new academy on the same site for students aged 11 to 19.
