Kingswood School Sees Record GCSE Grades
It was announced today that an outstanding 78% of all I/GCSE grades awarded to Kingswood pupils are at Levels 9-7. This is a record result showing an increase of 15% versus last year.
Overall, 24% of grades awarded were Level 9 and over half (51%) were Levels 9-8.
A remarkable 21 students achieved at least nine or more subjects at grade 9-8, while two students secured 11 grade 9s. With an offering of 20 subjects at GCSE, the success across subject areas again demonstrates the breadth of opportunity for Kingswood pupils, with particular note of Biology and Physics at over 95% of grades at 9-7 and Chinese, Geography, Maths, Music and RPE with over 80% of grades at 9-7.
Of course, our pupils’ experience has been about so much more than the classroom; whether treading the boards with starring roles in Legally Blonde the Musical, securing their Silver Duke of Edinburgh Awards, winning the U16 Plate at the Rosslyn Park Rugby 7s Festival or debating their way to a bronze medal at the National Philosothon Final.
Mr Gordon-Brown, Principal of the Kingswood Foundation, said: '
I am so proud of this cohort’s incredible set of results, which is both a testament to the great attitude they brought to their studies, and the care and support from our very talented and dedicated teachers. At Kingswood, academic excellence is one important part of our vision of a holistic education that transforms lives. I can’t wait to welcome this group back into our sixth form and watch them grow in mind, body and spirit over the next couple of years.'
We are looking forward to seeing 90% of the year group continue their Sixth Form journey at Kingswood this September and to welcoming over 30 new students. Together they will experience our newly refurbished Sixth Form centre with café and small studies, wide academic offering of 23 subjects and our enriching Advanced Electives Programme, as well as bespoke support for UCAS and work experience plus a myriad of leadership opportunities to help them prepare for their next steps.
