GCSE Results

We are delighted to celebrate and share the success of our Year 11 students. We are incredibly proud of the commitment to their studies that they have shown, especially taking into account the disruption to their education as a result of the pandemic in recent years. Every Year 11 student deserves great praise for this.

It is extremely pleasing to see so many students rise to these challenges and achieve outcomes that enable them to further their studies. All students deserve great praise for the resilience that they have shown throughout their GCSE courses. Particular examples embodying our mission of “pursuit of excellence” are:

  • Naina: 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 7, 7
