Do free schools increase opportunities and reduce disparities in economic and social outcomes?🌱 A Fresh Start, A Bright Future — Why Lyde Green Could Be the Right Choice for Your Child We know that choosing a new school — especially one that hasn’t opened yet — can feel like a big decision. But recent research from the National Foundation for Educational Research (NFER) gives us every reason to feel confident and optimistic. 📊 What the evidence shows about new secondary free schools like Lyde Green: - Students in new secondary schools achieve higher GCSE results than their peers in other schools. - New schools help reduce pupil absence, especially in key exam years. - Pupils are more likely to stay in education after 16, with increased participation in A-levels and university. These findings show that new schools — when built with care, vision, and community at their heart — can open doors to opportunity and deliver strong outcomes. 🏫 At Lyde Green Community School, we’re not just building a school — we’re building a future. Our curriculum is designed for tomorrow’s world, and our values are rooted in nurturing character and life skills alongside academic success. 🔗 Read the full NFER report here: https://www.nfer.ac.uk/publications/do-free-schools-increase-opportunities-and-reduce-disparities-in-economic-and-social-outcomes/ #LydeGreenCommunitySchool#NewBeginnings#ParentReassurance#FreeSchoolsWork#BristolEducation#FutureReady 2 Likes
