Students at Kingswood School, Bath are celebrating very strong GCSE/IGCSE results this year. With 56% of all results awarded at grades 9 and 8, and 76% at grades 9 – 7, students have achieved very highly across both GCSE and IGCSE examinations. The picture is an excellent one across the breadth of the curriculum with the Sciences, Humanities and Creative Arts all enjoying stellar results.
Amongst many excellent individual performances, we saw seven pupils securing a full set of grade 9s. In addition, 25 students (nearly a quarter of the year group) achieved straight 8s and 9s, while pupils across the year group can be very proud of their results; the 98% a
testament to their hard work and the support of our staff.
Headmaster, Andrew Gordon-Brown, commented: “This is a happy day for our Year 11 pupils who have achieved a most excellent set of results. It is no mean feat that the cohort outcome is in line with last year’s best ever results and I could not be prouder of their efforts. I take my hat off to Leyla A, Aoife T, Adam E, Emily H, Hannah K, Isobel M and Jamie P for their exceptional achievement of ten GCSEs at Grade 9 and I am immensely proud of all our Year 11, who are now well placed for further success in the Sixth Form.
“For this multi-talented year group, these qualifications are a further accolade adding to the success they have enjoyed in sport, drama, music and outdoor pursuits. This is a wonderful example of great teaching and great pastoral care working together to enable our young people to be the best versions of themselves in all things, including examinations. I so look forward to watching this cohort develop as leaders and role models in the sixth form.”
