Students at Marling School are celebrating today after receiving their GCSE results, with grades even exceeding those achieved in the non-examined years of 2020 and 2021.
Over 20% of all results were awarded at grade 9, 44% at grade 8 or better and 65% at 7 or higher. Within such a set of results, there were many individual successes.
Four students scored grade 9s in all their subjects, 11 students scored 7 or more grade 9s and 103 students scored five or more grades 9 to 7.
Glen Balmer, Marling School’s headteacher said: “I am incredibly proud of all our students and staff. Our Year 11s richly deserve these exceptional results for their hard work and the inspirational way they responded to all the challenges thrown at them by the pandemic.
“Our staff also showed great adaptability, positivity and resilience throughout the last two and a half years. I am in awe of their dedication, skill and commitment to supporting our young people.”
