For the 2025 and 2026 exam results, due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the government will not be releasing Progress 8 figures for any schools. 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. 

Cardinal Heenan staff and governors are proud of the results that our students continue to achieve. Below is the average of Leeds Local Authority Schools to show how we compare. The green column shows how much higher we achieve than the Local Authority average for every measure.
