Congratulations to Year 11 on their excellent GCSE results - another proud day at Coundon Court, following last week's outstanding results for our Sixth Form!
Over a three-year period, when comparing 2023, 2024 and this cohort's results, our students have achieved its highest 9-4 percentage; highest 9-5 percentage (increasing from 47% last year to 52% this year) and our highest 9-7 percentage at 18.5% (increasing from 16.2% last year).
Attainment 8 is the key performance measure that reflects the average achievement of students across their best eight subjects, and we are proud to share that we have the highest attainment figure over the three-year period - increasing significantly from last year! This reflects the improvement in grades in subject areas. Our English grades, in particular, have seen a significant improvement on last year's attainment and are above the national for 4+5. 5+% and 7+% in both English language and English literature. Our Maths and Science results remain in line with national with our Science 7+% remaining above the national average.
We look forward to welcoming many students back to our Sixth Form. We have offered a record number of places to Coundon Court pupils and external students from across the City - over 130 have already enrolled.
The Year 11, Careers and Sixth Form Teams have worked hard to ensure all of our young people secure a positive destination for September – including apprenticeships and other Level 3 courses with colleges and training providers. We look forward to hearing about their future achievements and we are always here to offer support and guidance. Please do not hesitate to get in touch with the Sixth Form Team if you have any questions about next steps: we will be more than happy to help.
We are immensely proud of the achievement of all of our pupils, and while it would not be possible to mention all outstanding achievers, below are a selection of pupils who have excelled with their average grade displayed:
We would like to re-emphasise our congratulations to all Year 11s and to thank all parents and staff for their unwavering support in ensuring the success of our young people.
