Congratulations on GCSE results!
At the beginning of the week we were excited to congratulate schools in Manchester and Cheshire on their A-level achievements. Now we’ve got more good news from the local schools as they are celebrating GCSE examination results.
The Manchester Grammar School is proud to announce that 40% of all GCSE grades this year were at the very highest grade 9 level and two-thirds of all grades achieved were 9 or 8 (the equivalent of an A*). 10 boys received all nines, 44 all nines and eights and 101 received all nines, eights and sevens (equivalent to A*/A). Just a few of the many highlights were 72% of Computer Science, 78% of Further Maths and 82% of Music results were graded 9.
GCSE Results Day brought further celebrations at The Grange as two thirds of all entries were at grades 7-9. Such high academic standards characterise a Grange education but even then, these results better last year’s excellent performance.
Head Lorraine Earps said ‘This is a remarkable set of results from this year group. They have always had a great enthusiasm for school life but as GCSE examinations approached, they showed notable dedication. I am so pleased these efforts have yielded dividends for them today. We are proud of every one of them today and I know that their results will provide them a springboard for future success, whatever they put their mind to.’
The Stockport Grammar School students are looking forward to exciting futures with excellent GCSE results: over 22% were at the top mark of 9 and 63% were at 9, 8 and 7.
Head of Senior School Mrs Sarah Capewell said: “It has been wonderful to celebrate the successes of our pupils this summer. I look forward to seeing our new Lower Sixth make the step up to A Level study.”
