Results
Students at the King’s School in Gloucester are celebrating a successful year of GCSE results with 48% of grades at 7-9 and three quarters at grades 6-9.
Several students achieved nine or more grade 9s in their exams, including Samantha and Laurence.
Subjects such as Biology, Chemistry, Design Technology, French, Latin, Music, PE, Physics, Religious Studies and Further Maths have enjoyed exceptional success with more than two thirds of entries scoring 9-7.
Among the students celebrating their results including several former Choristers, a Great British double trampolinist, Gloucester RFC Academy players, talented equestrian riders and tetrathlete, skilled actors and dancers, a county tennis player, members of the Team Bath Hockey Talent Academy and Severn Stars Nova Netball and a number of exceptionally gifted musicians.
The Headmaster, Mr David Morton, commented,
“We are all very proud of our students’ GCSE results this year. Our students and staff have worked really hard and the students have attained a strong set of results. They have also maintained a busy life outside the classroom in sport, music, drama, Duke of Edinburgh Award and supporting our local community. We look forward to these bright, talented all-rounders moving through to our flourishing Sixth Form.
It is important to recognise that students at all levels of achievement should be proud of their efforts with each grade being hard earned. We wish to congratulate each and every one of them on their superb achievements; they should rightly be proud of themselves. King’s has a reputation for producing strong all-rounders who work hard outside of the classroom as well as inside it.”
