Academic excellence
We are delighted to be celebrating another year of outstanding GCSE results, with the most commonly awarded grade being a Grade 9, over half of all GCSEs graded 9 or 8 and almost three quarters graded 9 - 7.
In addition to the impressive grades, the value-added score that pupils achieved this year is just below +1, meaning pupils make progress almost by one grade as a results of the inspirational teaching and exceptional academic support that the pupils have received from their teachers.
