Its letter

No letter for UTC Sheffield Olympic Legacy Park

UTCs and studio schools aren’t given a letter: they take pupils at 14 from a wide area, so their GCSE results don’t compare with schools that teach from 11.

Letters go to England’s open mainstream state schools with published Key Stage 2 or GCSE results (grammar schools included), each against the schools of its own phase.
