Charters School students and staff have achieved a marvellous set of GCSE results this year with 243 students completing their exams.

Overall, 82% achieved 5 or more standard passes (grade level 9-4) including English and Mathematics. 41% of all entries were awarded at grade level 7 or above, the equivalent of an old GCSE A and above. 14% of entries were at grade level 8 (the equivalent of an A*) and 9% were at the new grade level 9 which rewards attainment above the A* grade.

Co-Headteachers Martyn Parker and Richard Pilgrim said, “We are delighted with these results which are a step-up from the very good outcomes in 2017. Students across the ability range have demonstrated great success. Our initial analysis indicates that across all subjects, on average, our students have achieved at least half a grade better than students of similar academic ability nationally.  We are very proud of them and the support given by our teaching and associate staff at a time when the examinations are more demanding.”
