  • Outstanding 2024 GCSE Results!

    Published 22/08/24

    We were thrilled to welcome back our Year 11 students today to receive their GCSE results.  The nerves, tension and apprehension could be clearly seen on their faces as they tentatively opened the envelopes to see the grades they had been awarded. 

    Very quickly the sounds of laughter, cheers and excitement were filling the school as our Year 11 celebrated the fantastic results they truly deserved! We were ecstatic for all our students who have achieved yet again a set of amazing results. 

    Gunnersbury boys have surpassed national expectations and achieved phenomenal results.  An impressive 45% of students achieved grades 9-7.  In addition, 81% of our students achieved 5 or more GCSEs including English and Maths and 90% achieved 4 or more GCSEs including English and Maths

    The Year 11s of 2024 have worked hard throughout the last two years to ensure the superb outcomes today. Undoubtedly; their outstanding application in lessons, at home and throughout the exam period; brilliantly supported by their teachers and parents; was worthwhile!  Our Year 11s now have doors to very exciting futures, opened very wide indeed.

     

    Very well done to all!
