School Description

Thornton Grammar School is larger than the average-sized secondary school. The proportion of girls is lower than the national average. The proportion of students eligible for the pupil premium is well above the average. The pupil premium is additional funding for those students known to be eligible for free school meals and those children who are looked after by the local authority. The proportions of students from minority ethnic backgrounds and those learning English as an additional language are both higher than average. The proportion of students supported at school action is above average and the proportion of students supported at school action plus or with a statement of special educational needs is below average. The school meets the government’s current floor standards, which are the minimum expectations for students’ attainment and progress. The school works collaboratively within the Bradford Partnership of schools to provide leadership training opportunities for staff. Other partnerships, for example with The Lighthouse Group and Accent Training (both Bradfordbased organisations) provide a range of optional and applied courses for small groups of students in Years 10 and 11. The school runs a specially resourced provision for pupils with special educational needs, which is referred to as a designated specialised provision (DSP). It was established to provide additional support for students with a statement of special educational needs with complex learning difficulties to enable them access the mainstream curriculum. Currently, there are 14 students from Year 7 to 11 in the unit.
