Many congratulations to our GCSE pupils who today celebrated excellent results this year.
With 52% achieving between 7-9, and a quarter of the cohort with a combined grade average higher than a grade 8 or above, the results reflect the continued academic success of the School.
We are thrilled to report that this year’s results were higher at both overall pass rate and grades 7-9 than in 2019 when public exams were last sat, and also eclipsed the 2020 Centre Assessed Grades at every level. The number of grades 8 and 9 were an increase on the past four years. Strong value-added scores were also achieved by all.
There were extremely strong performances from Biology, Design and Technology and Physics.
My heartfelt congratulations to our Fifth Form pupils on their GCSE results today. Their hard work has paid dividends and their results are just rewards for their determination, perseverance, and dedication to their studies. Headline statistics are only a snapshot of what these children have achieved and just one part of what a Bloxham education offers. This year group have accomplished so much both in and out of the classroom and we are proud of each individual’s successes. I look forward to celebrating future achievements with this cohort during their time in the Sixth Form.
Paul Sanderson, Headmaster
