King’s Worcester is celebrating another year of outstanding GCSE success, with impressive academic results matched by exceptional achievements across the school’s rich programme of co-curricular and enrichment opportunities.

 

Twenty-two percent of all grades received were at grade 9, (A*), while nearly two thirds of all grades received were 9 to 7 (A* - A). Grade 9 was the most frequently awarded grade.

Head of Foundation, Ben Charles, said: 'I am incredibly proud of today’s results, which reflect our pupils’ hard work and determination as well as the ongoing encouragement, care and guidance from families and staff.

'As well as being an exceptional year academically, we have enjoyed one of the most successful sporting years in our history, while the creative and co-curricular life of the school has been equally vibrant. Our pupils have embraced the breadth of opportunities offered to them, developing skills that will stay with them throughout their lives.

'We look forward to welcoming our pupils back as Sixth Formers, alongside a number of new students who will begin their King’s journey with us.'

There are many exceptional individual achievements amongst this year’s cohort. One pupil achieved all 11 GCSEs at Grade 9, while 42% of all grades were at 8 or above.
