Our Outcomes

YEAR 11 PUBLIC EXAMINATION RESULTS 2018

In 2017, students sat new GCSEs in English language, literature and mathematics. These were graded 9-1 (with 9 the highest grade). All others GCSE exams were graded A*-G. From 2018, almost all GCSEs will be graded 9-1. Grade 4 is equivalent to the old ‘C’ grade whilst grade 5 is seen by the government as a “good” pass.
