Exam Results

We are really proud of the exceptional hard work and resilience shown by the class of 2025 and the great results that they deservedly achieved.

A breakdown of these exam grades can be found in the link below.

Results Day

GCSE results will be shared with students on Thursday 20th August 2026, and results can be collected from school between 10:00am and 12:00pm. Students should arrive via Reception, where they will receive their results and have the opportunity to speak with staff if they have any questions about next steps. We are very much looking forward to celebrating their individual and collective achievements.

Students who have signed up for the DfE Education Record App will also receive a digital copy of their GCSE results later that morning. Further information about the app can be found on the Government website. Any students who have not yet downloaded the app and completed the sign‑in process can still do this with Mr Brooks in the main office.

Grades Explained

GCSEs are now graded 9 to 1, rather than A* to G. Grade 9 is the highest grade, set above the old A*.

The grades were given for the first time in 2017 results for specifications that first started teaching in 2015. From 2019, all GCSE results will be using the new system.

The Government has said that grade 4 is a ‘standard pass’. Grade 5 is a ‘strong pass’ and equivalent to a high C and low B on the old grading system. Grade 4 remains the level that students must achieve without needing to resit English and Maths post-16.

GCSE Combined Science students will receive a double grade, from 9-9 to 1-1.

This double award is worth two GCSEs, and is made up of two equal or adjacent grades. There are 17 possible grade combinations, for example, (9-9), (9-8), (8-8), (8-7) – through to (1-1).
