You will see from the above results that for Levels 5 or 6 we exceed the National expected average and in English and Mathematics we exceed the Independent Girls Schools National Average.
Congratulations to our Year 9 pupils who performed exceptionally well in the Key Stage 3 SATS Exams in May.

The overall results are above the National Average, with both English and Mathematics at Farringtons exceeding the national average for independent schools.

As a wide ability school, Farringtons is most delighted at the superb number of Level 7 and Level 8 grades achieved in Mathematics and the value-added score obtained by our students in all core subjects.
