A secondary school has been recognised nationally for pupil's outstanding key stage 4 and 5 results last year.

Yavneh College in Borehamwood was found to be among the best performing non-selective secondary schools and sixth forms in the country, receiving six awards for being in the top 10 per cent nationally for attainment, and for being in Department for Education Band 1 for student progress at key stage 4.

The school was also recognised for being in the top 10 per cent nationally for student attainment and achieving significantly higher than national average student progress in both academic and applied general subjects at key stage 5.

The awards are based on 2019 data provided by the Department for Students and Teachers network and Ofsted.
