Examination Results

Headline Data

Here at Upton-by-Chester High School we look to celebrate all forms of achievement. One of the key measures of the school's success is the performance of learners in the end of Key Stage Four and end of Key Stage Five external examinations. In recent years, our learners have excelled in these external examinations.

Ofsted visited the school in February 2025. 

They said that "Staff are determined that pupils will achieve highly. The vast majority do."
