Blue Coat GCSE Success

 

Blue Coat students have once again excelled in their GCSE examinations in 2024. We are absolutely delighted with the results they have achieved. With well over two thousand GCSEs being sat, we are thrilled that outcomes are once again significantly above national average.  Students achieving both English and Maths at Grade 4+ and Grade 5+ has increased since last year’s results with 54.5% achieving at the higher level which is significantly higher than the national average. Whilst our most able students have performed exceptionally well, we are particularly pleased that 76.5% of our students passed both their English and Maths GCSEs which is again significantly above national average and maintains the strong GCSE results profile of previous years.  Our positive progress score demonstrates the impact of a Blue Coat education.  We are proud of all our students and the hard work they have displayed supported by excellent staff and committed parents/carers whom have enabled them to flourish.  Most importantly, Blue Coat students embody our vision of ‘living life in all its fullness’ and repeatedly demonstrate our CHRIST values of Care, Hard work, Respect, Integrity, Servanthood and Togetherness.

 

We were delighted to see so many happy faces when the students picked up their results. The number of students choosing to continue their education into the sixth form remains high following the Outstanding Ofsted grade awarded last academic year. We are also enrolling a number of external applicants for September and look forward to welcoming all students to our exceptional sixth form to continue their studies.
