GCSE Results – 24 August 2023
Following the success last week of our A Level students, we are delighted that our Year 11 students have achieved a fantastic set of GCSE results.
English Language | English Literature | Mathematics | Both English and Maths | |
Grade 4 or above | 97% | 98% | 92% | 92% |
Grade 5 or above | 94% | 90% | 86% | 85% |
63% of our girls attained the English Baccalaureate. These are girls who attained 5 GCSEs with a minimum of Grade 4 of English and Maths, and a minimum of a grade 4 in three other ‘E Bacc’ subjects, which are: Sciences, History, Geography, French and Spanish.
Our overall Attainment 8 score is 65.77. 51% of grades in total were 9-7 and 84% of grades were 9-5. The average points score is 6.29. These figures are very similar to those from 2022; there has not been a ‘dip’ in results at GCSE, despite the national picture showing a decrease in top grades awarded across the country.
These are excellent results and we are so proud of all girls in Year 11! Congratulations to everyone in Year 11, and, as for our A Level results, thank you to parents and carers for their support and encouragement and to staff for their hard work and commitment to our students.
Our Year 11 students, along with those across the country, faced significant disruption to their education during the pandemic. They have worked incredibly hard and they are to be commended for their commitment to their studies and for the ways in which they have supported each other through difficult times. Our students can be very proud of these results and of all they have achieved at Lady Margaret School. We look forward to welcoming many of them to Year 12 this September and we wish all of them every happiness and success in the next stage of their education.
