Cranbrook School has been ranked as the 'lowest value selective' school according to a report published in the Sunday Times today (p12, News).

Michael Gove, the Education secretary, recently commissioned a study to look at value for money in terms of how much a school spends in direct relation to academic results. Analysts Munro Global calculated the scores for the Times to show the average cost of gaining 100 A Level points at each school in the UK.

And fairly shockingly, Cranbrook School comes out as the worst value for money in the selective sector, and in the article is accused of spending money inefficiently. Top of this group is Colyton Grammar in Devon where best value for money translates as every 100 A Level points costs just £334.

Have you read the article? What do you make of it if so?
