3 in 10 GCSE results at highest level

Despite the challenges posed by the disruptions of recent years, our students have once again demonstrated exceptional resilience and a determination to succeed, and the school is delighted to announce an outstanding performance in this year’s GCSE examinations, with almost one third of all grades achieved at the highest level.

Mr Barker, Deputy Head of the Senior School (Academic), expressed his pride at the students’ accomplishments, stating: “We are incredibly proud of these young individuals and their remarkable achievements. This cohort of students faced unprecedented challenges, with no allowances made in their grading for the disruptions they encountered. Yet, despite facing a stricter grading system than expected, they have not only adapted but have excelled in every measure.”

The school is also thrilled to celebrate the exceptional individual performances of Rumaysah Khan, Dalia Yousif, Jake Hughes and Moni Abioye. These students have achieved a stunning clean sweep of grades 9 to 7 in all subjects, amassing an impressive total of 23 grade 9s collectively.

Year 10 students have also exceeded expectations with exceptional results in Statistics, achieving a 100% pass rate with nearly three quarters of all grades being at the higher level of 7 and above.

These results follow another perfect year of A Level passes for Sixth Formers at Bridgewater School, with Year 13 graduates now embarking on exciting journeys to some of the most prestigious universities across the country.

For those interested in discovering more about the unparalleled benefits of a Bridgewater education, the school welcomes visitors to its upcoming Open Events in the Autumn Term.
