The EBacc is made up of the subjects which are considered essential to many degrees and open up lots of doors.
Research shows that a pupil’s socio-economic background impacts the subjects they choose at GCSE, and that this determines their opportunities beyond school.
A study by the UCL Institute of Education shows that studying subjects included in the EBacc provides students with greater opportunities in further education and increases the likelihood that a pupil will stay on in full-time education. Sutton Trust research reveals that studying the EBacc can help improve a young person’s performance in English and maths.
The government’s ambition is to see 75% of pupils studying the EBacc subject combination at GCSE by 2022, and 90% by 2025.
We strongly recommend pupils study the EBacc subjects at Millthorpe School.

One of the massive success stories of the ‘Make Space for Girls’ in Rowntree Park Festival last year was basketball. Lots of girls went on to join York Eagles. They now have 3 girls teams not just 1! More basketball this June:
