The below shows a summary of our GCSE results from the last eight years in which formal examinations have taken place.

Great success, with best ever top GCSE grades!

Many congratulations to our Year 11s, achieving exceptional results, with 41% of grades at level 9, our highest outcome in any examination year.
With the national picture showing a return to 2019 grading (see Ofqual’s letter from September 2022), the Emanuel % 9-8 tally (68%) saw an increase of more than 50% on our highest pre-pandemic results.

We are delighted to have seen a continued year-on-year growth at GCSE with some outstanding individual performances.

Key points:

  • Over two-thirds of results were graded 9 or 8
  • Nine pupils achieved perfect GCSE grades (each receiving ten grade 9s)
  • Over half the year group managed a grade average of at least 8.0
  • Excellence was achieved across the academic spectrum:
    –  Almost fifty pupils elected to take an additional Further Mathematics qualification (85% of whom received grades 9-7)
    – Performance in the creative subjects demonstrated the breadth of talent in the year group (95% of Art, Design Technology, Drama and Music entries were graded 9-7)
  • Pupils achieved a superb ‘value-added’ of almost a grade for each result.

The headmaster has said, ‘…this hard-working and talented bunch of pupils ought to be incredibly proud of themselves and their achievements. A significant part of their time at senior school has been heavily impacted by the pandemic, and they have shown great personal and collective determination to gain such impressive GCSE outcomes. I know that all their teachers, form tutors and families will be thrilled for them. They should feel very confident and motivated as they start their A Levels in September. We continue to see a very bright future!’
