2023 Exam Results
Our students once again surpassed the UK national averages in all areas. 2023 marked a return to a more traditional exam season and grading, following the previous changes to assessment necessitated by the global pandemic. Our students, as always, performed tremendously in their exams. Our IGCSE results at the end of Year 11 were once again excellent, with 46% of grades being awarded the top A*/A grades and our students surpassing international A*-C grades in all subjects. Our Year 13 students also performed tremendously with almost three-quarters awarded A*-B grades. All of our Year 13 students have, therefore, once again, been able to enter their universities of choice in the UK, Spain and around the world. We are incredibly proud of their achievements.
