Over 50% of GCSE results at Charterhouse have been graded 9-8.
This is the first year that all GCSEs at Charterhouse have been graded on the new 9-1 scale.
A grade of 8 or above is the equivalent to the A*, and at Charterhouse over 50% of pupils’ grades are 9-8, an incredible achievement in this new grading system. Furthermore, 25% of all grades awarded were 9, the highest possible grade attainable, and well above the former A*.
All of our pupils take at least 9 GCSEs, and of these an impressive 46 pupils gained 9 or more GCSEs that were all graded 9-7.
Finally, 24 pupils achieved grades all of which were classed in the 9-8 band, the highest marks available at GCSE.
Dr Alex Peterken, Headmaster, expressed his delight at what pupils have achieved, and gratitude to teaching staff who have guided and supported pupils so well through these examination reforms.
