Cambridge GCSE based on School
How do i know how well my school performed and if it was good, considering the school i achieved them at? (8777666554)
When you say 'how well my school performed', do you mean their pass rates? I will say that your GCSES aren't the end of the world (I got 998777765 and got an offer to do Languages when I got a 7 in Spanish at GCSE), provided you can show later improvement/commitment and a genuine deep passion for your subject. Especially if the subject isn't related to your degree I suppose. They have a very holistic (looking at everything, not just grades, but you, your current level of work (usually seen in their exams), your background, any issues which might affect/have affected your work, that sort of thing) process for deciding. School success rate is used more so for determining stuff like contextual offers, aid, etc. if I understand it correctly?

Yes i mean overall performance compared to the grades i got.
Just got this from my old schools website if that helps
Overall headline figures include:
•
Overall attainment figures remain comparable with 2019 (the last year that full exams were taken)
•
Early indications show that progress remains above average i.e. pupils at BLANK progress better than similar pupils nationally
•
A fifth of the cohort achieved English and Maths at level 7 or better
•
Over half the cohort achieved a strong pass (level 5 or better) in both English and Maths
•
Three quarters of the cohort achieved a standard pass (level 4 or better) in both English and Maths

Very quickly might want to know you've left your school name in there! I don't know if you mind that sort of thing
