These are the best performing secondary schools in Liverpool, according to the latest official league table.
The Department for Education’s (DfE) secondary school league table does not include Progress 8 scores for the 2024/25 academic year. According to the DfE, this is because there is no KS2 assessment data available to calculate the baseline for Progress 8 for these years due to Covid-19 disruption.
With this is mind, we have ranked secondary schools using Attainment 8 data - which looks at how pupils have performed in tests and assessments in up to eight qualifications including English, maths, three English Baccalaureate qualifications including sciences, computer science, history, geography and languages, and three other additional approved qualifications.
Take a look at the gallery below to see the 13 best performing schools in Liverpool, based on Attainment 8 scores at the end of Key Stage 4 in 2025.
