This has been the largest cohort to sit GCSEs at Wycliffe for several years, across Year 11 and the ‘Development Year’ (a pre-A Level course for international Boarding pupils).
Outstanding individual performances from Year 11 pupils included Abigail Opaleye from Hempsted and Olivia Larkman from Stonehouse each with no fewer than ten subjects at 8 or 9, Cathy Chow from Hong Kong with nine such top-grades and Sebastian Forrest of Brownshill with eight. The pick of the international pupils (studying a slightly-reduced number of GCSEs but in just ten months) was Naiara Lasa Martín-Almagro (from Spain) who secured an 8 or a 9 in six subjects.

For a non-academically-selective school like Wycliffe, seeing pretty much one-third of all grades awarded at 7, 8 or 9 (previously A*/A) is exceptionally pleasing and speaks volumes for the efforts of the pupils involved and the support and guidance that they received from our teaching staff. However, even more than that, I am most pleased with the breadth and consistency evidenced more widely by the fact that almost eight out of every ten grades was at 5 or higher.
