We are are thrilled to celebrate outstanding GCSE results for 2026 building on the success of last week’s excellent A Level achievements and university placements.
This year, once more, over half of the GCSE grades awarded were at levels 9, 8 or 7 (equivalent to A*-A), with over one third of all grades awarded at levels 9 and 8, reflecting the excellent achievement of so many of the cohort.
Beyond these impressive results however, the School is particularly proud of the significant ‘value-added’ progress, which highlights the remarkable improvement pupils make when they study here.
Headmaster James Thomas expressed his pride, stating: “We are so pleased to share this highly impressive set of GCSE results for last year’s Fifth Form (Year 11) pupils. Across a broad range of subjects, pupils have secured superb outcomes. They were most fortunate to have wonderful support from their teachers and families who are all equally proud. These results provide a strong foundation as the pupils step into Sixth Form life and beyond and we congratulate them”.
Head of Senior School, David Sansom commented: “Following a significant amount of hard work and commitment to their studies, these results are so pleasing for these pupils. As a year group they also engaged so significantly with the wide ranging extra-curricular programme here at Sutton Valence. There is every confidence that they will excel moving forward and we look forward to seeing and hearing great things. Well done to them all.”
