Results and Destinations of Leavers
2020 GCSE Results
The sun shone on our Year 11 girls as they arrived in school to collect their GCSE results. In a year in which they did not have the opportunity to sit the GCSE examinations, the girls received the higher of the Centre Assessed Grades or the Ofqual moderated grade. We were delighted that after so much waiting, government u-turns and media speculation that the girls have a fabulous set of GCSE grades. The headline figures are:
15% were at Grade 9, the very highest A*grade, 35% at Grade 9 and 8, 62% at Grades 9-7, 84 % at Grades 9-6 and 99.77% at Grades 9-4.
My thanks go to all the staff, parents, governors and friends of the school who have supported the St Mary’s community in this most challenging of years. Congratulations to Year 11 class of 2020, we are so very proud of you! (Mrs Adams, Headmistress)
2020 A Level Results
It was a very happy morning at St Mary’s as the Year 13 leavers received their A level results. In an examination year full of uncertainty, the Year 13 leavers have been delighted that the majority have achieved their desired place at university. Their resilience, determination and positivity has been evident throughout their Sixth Form course and during lockdown and in a situation that could not have been imagined, they now have what they need to pursue the next exciting chapter in their careers. This cohort achieved 53% A*-A and 83% A*-B grades and we couldn’t be more proud!
Mrs Adams , Headmistress said, ‘I am incredibly proud of the girls, staff and everyone who has supported the Year 13 Leavers throughout their Sixth Form course and during their whole time at St Mary’s. Some of our girls have been with us from Reception and are now leaving to take their place in the world, full of confidence. Their achievements are so well deserved and I could not be happier for the Year 13s and their families today.’
