Ryde School pupils are celebrating their GCSE results today with 26.6 per cent of all grades at 9 or 8 (the equivalent to the old A*), which represents the best results in the School’s history at this top level of grade.
An impressive 43.4 per cent of grades achieved were at 9 to 7 with 91 per cent of grades at 9 to 4. Pupils are therefore justifiably celebrating these results after two challenging years of hard work.
Individual achievements
There are also some fantastic individual achievements to note.
- All of Charlotte Andrews’ ten GCSEs were at grade 9 – a perfect score.
- Hugh Wilson achieved nine GCSEs at grade 9 with one subject at grade 7.
- Max Davison, Sophia Dutton, Noah Evans, Tess Leyland attained grades 9 or 8 in all their subjects.
Over a third of pupils achieved five or more GCSEs at grade 7 or higher and 61.6 per cent of pupils achieved five or more GCSEs at grade 6 or higher.
Turner: Excellent results are a credit to them, their ambition and their resilience
Head Master, Will Turner, commented,
“The pupils collecting their exams today do so at the end of two very challenging years that have been disrupted significantly by the pandemic.
“These excellent results are therefore a real credit to them, their ambition and their resilience.
“It is also important to take this opportunity to acknowledge the teaching staff at the School who have taught the pupils so well despite the disruptions of the pandemic.
“Following on from the impressive A Level and IB results, these GCSE grades reflect the strong academic legacy my predecessor Mark Waldron leaves after his nine years as Head Master.”
