30% of pupils achieve 9 or more Grade 9s

Alleyn’s Year 11 pupils have achieved the school’s strongest-ever GCSE results, with an outstanding 95% of all exams awarded Grade 9–7. 

The results represent a remarkable achievement across the curriculum. More than half of all exams (58%) were awarded a Grade 9, while 84% were graded 9–8. Exceptional success was seen in key subjects: 71% of pupils gained Grade 9 in English Literature, 65% achieved the top grade in Maths, and 75% secured Grade 9s in both History and French. 

This year’s GCSE results follow strong results for Alleyn’s in A Level with 41% of exams awarded an A*, 81% receiving an A* or A and 94% awarded an A*-B grade. 

Head, Jane Lunnon, praised the cohort: 

 “I am absolutely over the moon with the spectacular performance of our GCSE pupils across all their subjects. Their stellar grades are the result of the hard work and enthusiasm they have brought to learning at Alleyn’s, and the dedication of our staff who have worked closely with them and supported them every step of the way. 

“GCSEs test the mettle of children across a huge range of subjects and disciplines, which is why I am so pleased that today’s results shine a light on our strength in breadth. Whether it is the outstanding English Literature results across the board, fed by their sheer enjoyment of the texts they studied: Anthony and Cleopatra and Great Expectations; or this year group knocking it out of the park in Maths, the Sciences, History, and French, this is part of the school’s mission to deliver an excellent, full and enriching education that sets our pupils up for A Level study and builds the skills and confidence they need to carve their own paths for the future. 

“In the year that we are celebrating 50 years of co-education, our results have shown equality in achievement for girls and boys across all our subjects: from Computer Science, Biology and Chemistry, to performing arts disciplines including Dance and Drama. Above all, the results are a testament to the passion and commitment this lovely year group has shown in every part of school life. Well done to them!”
