Among our high achievers is Ishaq, who scored an amazing ten grade 9s, acing every subject! 🎉 He said: “I feel chuffed, to be honest. I didn’t expect to do so well. The school helped so much – they drill everything into you early on so it’s hard to forget.”

Sia achieved all 7s and 8s bar one. “I feel amazing. I’m so happy. I wasn’t expecting grades this high, particularly in subjects I struggled with. But I worked hard and did what I needed to do. The morning lectures and after-school interventions really helped.”

Congratulations to Timur on fantastic GCSE results: grade 9s across the board, plus an 8 in Spanish and 7 in Music. Timur praised his teachers, the supportive school community and enrichment programmes.

Congratulations to Arjav who achieved an outstanding four grade 9s, four grade 8s and one grade 7. Reflecting on the support he received, Arjav said: “I had really, really good teachers who made sure the work at home was not too stressful.”

Ten grade 9s for Helena. Congratulations to Helena Rumieros, 16, who achieved an incredible ten grade 9s in her GCSEs. Helena said getting all 9s had been her main goal, adding: “I feel really happy.”
