Shiplake College pupils are celebrating this morning as they achieved the highest % of top GCSE grades (excluding the 2021 COVID results), with 17% of 9-8 grades, an increase from 14% last year. The percentage of 9-7 grades also rose from 33% to 34%. Overall, the results were significantly higher than the pre-COVID results of 2019, with 93% of grades marked 9-4 and 58% of grades 9-6 (88% and 42% respectively in 2019).
Headmaster, Tyrone Howe, comments "It has been another successful morning for all members of the Shiplake College community and there was a celebratory atmosphere in Marjorie’s Café. Speaking to lots of pupils and parents, there are countless examples of them being delighted with specific subject results, because they worked particularly hard for that exam. Central to this is the engagement and commitment from the Shiplake teachers who play a crucial role in achieving such positive outcomes. For all, the theme is if you work hard, you receive the results you deserve and give yourself a real chance of achieving your own personal best.
"A high proportion of grades 9-7 were achieved in Triple Science, English Literature, History, Further Maths and Computing. A really pleasing number of pupils received grades 9-6 and particular congratulations to Angus Mullens, Zac McConkey, James Man on achieving 9-7 grades across the board.
"We have the highest number of students joining us in Sixth Form this year and we’re now focused on hitting the ground running right from the very first day of Lower Sixth to make sure the same high standards are in place."
