For those trying to decide schools, fit is always the most important factor, but if you are struggling then the Progress 8 score may be helpful to you. The scores for 2017 have been added to the compare tool in the last few days. I include the scorers for the Bromley and Bexley grammars plus a few Kent ones that are often popular with those in our boroughs. I also throw in some school that are not Grammar more for comparison and might be typical children from my area go to. You can build your own list at
