Our IGCSE results in 2026

Our 2026 cohort of 153 students, with an incredible 1410 exam entries, has significantly surpassed all UK GCSE averages. 1 in 3 grades (35%) were awarded at A*, with 2 in 3 (66%) awarded at A*/A. These top grade results are almost triple the UK benchmark for A*/A (Grades 7 - 9). 

5 students achieved straight A* grades across all of their subjects, an incredible achievement and 15 times the UK average, while 30 students achieved straight A*/As, 8 times the UK benchmark. 

This outstanding cohort has worked incredibly hard throughout their two-year IGCSE programme. These results are a testament to their dedication and the unwavering support of our academic team. 

In addition to our Year 11 results, we also received results from 62 students taking IGCSE examinations early in Years 10 and 11. 52 Year 10 students took their IGCSE Mathematics exam a year early, with 100% securing an A*/A. While 10 Year 9 students received their IGCSE results in Mandarin, with an outstanding 100% achieving a top grade A*.  

These results provide our students with the best possible foundation as they begin their first year of the rigorous International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP), building on the knowledge and skills gained during their IGCSE years.
