GCSE Results

Each year, our students achieve excellent exam results and this year’s results were no exception.

Excellent GCSE Results

Right across the board, our students continued the trend of individual success and becoming ‘the best version of themselves’.

Excellent results were achieved by our GCSE students this summer. No fewer than seventeen students achieved 70+ points in total, with some 139 grade 9s and 30 grade 8s between them, an outstanding achievement.

These statistics represent the dedication and excellence of our teaching staff and the hard work and application of our students, and we are justifiably proud of their achievements.

Alongside celebrating impressive GCSE results, our pupils have thrown themselves wholeheartedly into the wider life of the School, balancing academic achievement with an extraordinary range of co-curricular and community commitments.

From excelling in Music, Drama, Debating, and Sport, they have shown that personal growth flourishes when challenge is met with passion.

Achieving Academic Success

Lionel M achieved nine top grades (9) and one grade 8, all whilst being a member of the UK Youth Parliament and the School’s successful Public Speaking team.

He has thrown himself into everything Brentwood has to offer and has been a stalwart of Model United Nations, Rugby, Fencing and Performing Arts.

Lionel will now study Biology, Chemistry, Maths and Further Maths at A Level to help him realise his dream of studying ‘Medicine with a sprinkling of Politics’. He said,

“You have to approach everything you do with 100% of the effort and the potential that you have, and just work as hard as you can academically and outside of the academics. Brentwood has a really good balance of both and you can be supported in all areas at the same time.”

This year group has demonstrated maturity, perseverance, and a strong sense of community. They should be proud of the effort, determination and resilience they have shown throughout their GCSE courses.

GCSE Highflier

Another high achiever, Felicity B-Q, gained six grade 9s and four grade 8s.

Felicity is a Music and Academic Scholar at Brentwood School, a dedicated multi-instrumentalist, the leader of the school’s Big Band and a cornerstone in the majority of the School’s choral and instrumental ensembles.

Felicity is a prime example of how active involvement can go hand in hand with consistently achieving outstanding academic results.

Our outgoing Year 11s have shown, once again, that academic achievement and co-curricular commitment go hand-in-hand. We look forward to supporting them as they move into Sixth Form and seeing what they will go on to achieve in the years ahead.

Our three Sixth Form pathways – the International Baccalaureate Diploma, A Levels and BTEC Extended Diploma – allow us to help our students onto courses for which they are well suited.

We look forward to welcoming our GCSE cohort into our Lower Sixth.
