GCSE Success at The King’s School

Published: August 20, 2026 8:44 pm

Students at The King's School are celebrating another strong set of GCSE results, with 79% of students achieving a Grade 4 or higher in English and maths.

Behind the results are the inspiring success stories of our students, each with their own individual story and unique journey.

Jayden's results, including five Grade 9s and four Grade 8s, are the culmination of years of hard work and commitment. As a valued member of our student body, he has made a real contribution to school life and is incredibly well liked and respected by both his peers and staff. It has been a privilege to watch him grow over the past five years, and there is no doubt he has a very bright future ahead of him.

Maria's extraordinary achievement of ten Grade 9s is a testament to the ambition and dedication she has shown throughout her time at school. She has always gone above and beyond academically while also throwing herself into school life, taking lead roles in our productions and singing and performing on countless occasions. Maria has been an absolute credit to the school, and with ambitions to study at Oxford or Cambridge, we are incredibly excited to see where her talent and drive take her next.

Ash Jacobs, Executive Headteacher at The King's School, said "I am incredibly proud of our students today and their outstanding GCSE results. Although I only joined The King’s School at Easter, it was immediately clear that this was a very special year group, supported by a dedicated and committed team of staff. Their hard work, determination and positivity shines through, and it has been a real joy to see them finish the year in such a successful way. These brilliant results are thoroughly deserved, and I wish all of our students every success and happiness for the future."

Congratulations Class of 2026, your hard work and efforts have paid off! Thank you to our staff, families, and wider school community who have guided and supported our students every step of the way.
