Ryde School – 36 percent of all GCSE grades at 9 or 8 with more than half the results in English and Maths at grade 7 and above for the second year in a row.
After a challenging two years pupils and staff have had good reason to celebrate this morning with 36% of all grades being awarded 9 or 8 (the old A*) and 98 per cent at the 9-4 pass rate.
We are especially pleased that pupils have achieved success across the year group and ability range. Most pleasing is that 99 per cent of pupils achieved five GCSEs including English and Maths and 91 per cent of boys and 86 per cent of girls achieved the Ebacc that requires pupils to achieve in a range of subjects including Maths, English, Science, Languages and Humanities. 57 per cent of the results in Maths and 56 per cent in English Language were graded 7 or above.
20 of our students achieved an 8 or 9 in at least seven subjects: Matthew Beasley, Joseph Caddick, Ruby Dalloz, Marie Dartigues, Amanda Dutton, Daisy Dyer, Imogen Elsmore, Sara Hesse, Saffron Irons, Pippa Lewin, Harry Minchin, Ailsa Nuttall, Tallulah Pearce, Karina Piper, Millie Platt, James Potter, Genevieve Thompson, William Turrell and Álvaro Vincente Tarrago and Erin Young. Particular congratulations to Ailsa and Erin who both secured nines in all ten subjects.
Waldron: They have certainly earned these results today
Head Master Mark Waldron commented,
“It is so good to see pupils receiving these well-deserved results today. As a year group the pupils and teachers have not only had to contend with two years of disrupted learning, they have also faced more assessments and work load in the final months of the course than previous years.
“I am really very proud that we have sustained and improved on last year’s results whilst maintaining high standards and there is much to celebrate on both a personal and school-wide level. Given our pupils’ wide range of abilities, it is especially pleasing to see a big increase in the number of pupils getting their Ebacc and 100 per cent of pupils getting a 4 or above in Maths and English.
“They have certainly earned these results today and parents and teachers, who have worked alongside them in these challenging times, should happily join in the celebrations.”
