Who are we?

The PiXL Club is a collaboration of school leaders, headed by Sir John Rowling, this is a club that some have said to be "the best thing they have seen in education".

The PiXL Club is about sharing new ideas with school leaders; it is a partnership of focused, determined and dedicated professional practitioners. It is a not for profit organisation that focuses on supporting and developing the GCSE results of thousands of students in many schools across London, the South East, West and the North.

Success

The work of PiXL is based on well proven examples of significant improvement in GCSE performance. PiXL have now exceeded 170 schools including 10 PRU's and continues to grow.

In 2009-2010 there were 99 schools who overall achieved a 12% increase at GCSE performance and a 5.2% increase 'with English and Maths'.

The reason for the success of PiXL is down to its strategic focus and commitment from its members.

"The PiXL Club has helped us achieve results beyond our wildest dreams" (Mike Kingsford, Deputy Head, Shirley High School)

    • PiXL: You may be interested in what we are about...?

      An article in the TES on 30 Nov 2012 about the place of iGCSE and double entry with English featured extensively some of the work that PiXL does. It displayed some facts about PiXL which were largely accurate, namely:
       
      1. We currently have 400 secondary schools in the PiXL Club
      2. We have 147 Sixth Forms in PiXL 6
      3. We have 20 PRUs soon to rise to about 30
      4. We have 50 Primary partners in a pilot soon to rise towards 200 we believe
      5. Last year we had an average increase across our schools of 4.6% on E/M when nationally the figure was down 0.4%
       
      There was a mistake in the membership subscription: the TES said £3500 plus VAT when in fact it is £3200 plus VAT!
       
      Our fundamental principles are stated elsewhere but emphasise:
      a) our Moral Purpose: to achieve the best results for our students
      b) our commitment to students of ALL abilities
      c) supportive resources, pedagogy and leadership to bring about sustainable transformation. We are not about 'quick fixes'
      d) our commitment to each other. What was not written in the TES but communicated verbally is that' this feels more like a family than a Club'- absolutely correct!
