Our congratulations go out to last year’s Year 11 for an amazing set of examination results. I’m very pleased to inform you that Riverside School’s first ever GCSE examination results place the school in the top 4% of schools nationally and our progress is described by the DfE as WELL above average. Please look at the DfE school league tables 2017 to compare Riverside School with other schools locally and nationally: [https://www.compare-school-performance.service.gov.uk](https://www.compare-school-performance.service.gov.uk/). Below is a simplified table below which includes late results so it will be a little more up to date than the DfE website. Individual subject results are available on our results page [(click here)](http://www.riversidecampus.com/secondary/?page_id=1931) on the school website. These results really demonstrate the true commitment and determination from our students and staff to achieve the best possible grades. **GCSE Results 2017** | **Headline average national figures** | **National** | **Riverside School** | **Difference** | |---|---|---|---| | **Attainment 8** (A8) | 44.20 | 52.97 | +8.77 | | % **Basics 5+** (in both English and maths) | 39.1% | 53.0% | +13.9 | | % entered for Ebacc | 34.9% | 78.4% | +43.5 | | % **achieving 5/C+ in Ebacc** | 19.5% | 52.25% | +32.75 | | **Progress 8** (P8) | 0.0 | 0.7 | +0.7 | [ ASHIANA NETWORK AT RIVERSIDE SCHOOL](https://riverside-secondary.com/news/2017-10-19-ashiana-network-at-riverside-school) [Non-School Uniform Day – 20th December 2017 ](https://riverside-secondary.com/news/2017-12-19-non-school-uniform-day-20th-december-2017) ![Riverside Secondary School](https://files.schudio.com/riverside-secondary-school/images/logo/Logo_Footer.png) ### Riverside Secondary School Renwick Road Barking IG11 0FU 0203 946 5888 ### Social Media - [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/riverside_campus/) [![Partnership Learning](https://files.schudio.com/riverside-secondary-school/images/logo/AAAPartnership-Learning_white.png)](https://partnershiplearning.com) © Copyright 2026 Riverside Secondary School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://riverside-secondary.com/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
