2024 GCSE results remain strong

We are delighted to share news of the excellent GCSE results achieved by our 2024 cohort, which have remained at a consistently strong level, against a national picture where grades have fallen back to pre-COVID levels. Once again, our students have risen to the challenge, demonstrating their commitment to academic excellence and their determination to achieve their personal best. We are proud to announce that 50% of all grades awarded were at a 6 (equivalent to a high grade B) or above – significantly surpassing our baseline targets and reflecting the hard work and dedication of our students and staff.

Our students continue to excel across all subjects, particularly at the top end of the grading scale. We would like to give special recognition to Matthew Fong, Maximus Lai, Alfie Lumb, Josh Martin, Artemis Pang, Dean Rabbani and Jessica Wu, who have collectively amassed a remarkable 25 grade 9s between them. Their achievements are a testament to their perseverance, talent and the support provided by our school community.

Here at Bridgewater, we place great emphasis on supporting and guiding all our young people, including those with additional needs or personal challenges. We are committed to a holistic approach to education that prioritises personal development alongside academic achievement. These results reflect not just academic success but also the growth and resilience of all our students as individuals.

In addition to the success of our Year 11 students, we are pleased to celebrate the accomplishments of 16 dedicated Year 10 students who sat their GCSE Statistics a year early. These students pursued their studies in their own time, demonstrating an admirable commitment to learning and we are proud to report a 100% pass rate among this group.

As we reflect on these achievements, we are reminded of the importance of setting high expectations and providing the support and encouragement necessary for our students to reach their full potential. The school is incredibly proud of this year’s cohort and look forward to seeing them continue to succeed in their future endeavours.

For families interested in the benefits of a Bridgewater education, a Whole School Open Day will be held on Saturday 2nd November 2024. To reserve your place, please register your details here>

When we teach our students that nothing is impossible, we inspire them to achieve more.
