GCSE Results

August 29, 2024

Our Year 11s  have received their GCSE results, of which nearly half, 47.5% are at grade 7 or above. Just over a quarter (27.6%) are either 8 or 9, the very highest grades, while 9 of our students gained 5 or more grade 9s.

We are delighted to celebrate these results with our students and congratulate them on the many hours of hard work that led to these achievements. They have continued to excel in sport, drama and music, climbed mountains, run races and launched charity initiatives while working for their exams. We look forward to welcoming them into the Sixth Form, to continue their Aldenham journey with us very soon.
