GCSE results: It's all smiles once again at Crompton House

Date published: 22 August 2024


The publication of today’s GCSE results sees Crompton House School’s ‘Class of 2024’ celebrating excellent achievements, maintaining our strong track record of academic success.

These results are a credit to the students, their teachers and parents and carers.

With over 60% of students entered for the English Baccalaureate, 17% of all grades were 7-9 and 76% of all grades were 4-9.

70% of students achieved at least five passes including English and Maths, and over half of students achieved strong passes in English and Maths.

Individually there are lots of students to celebrate.

Top achievers included Katie Barnett (8 x grade 9, 2 x grade 8), Katie Elphick (8 x grade 9, 2 x grade 8), Abigail Evans (6 x grade 9, 4 x grade 8), Brooke Crotty (6 x grade 9, 3 x grade 8, 1 x grade 7), Sophie Meyrick (3 x grade 9, 5 x grade 8, 2 x grade 7), William Fitton (4 x grade 9, 4 x grade 8, 1 x grade 5), Simbarashe Madume (4 x grade 9, 3 x grade 8, 2 x grade 7, 1 x grade 6) and Leon Gerrard (9 x grade 8, 1 x grade 7).

A significant number of Year 11 students will be heading back to Crompton House to continue their studies at sixth form, and staff look forward to welcoming them back in September.

Staff also wish the best of luck to those students continuing their studies and apprenticeships elsewhere.

Mrs Susanna Hegarty (Head of School) said: "Today, we have celebrated the incredible achievements of our GCSE students, whose hard work and determination have truly shone through.

"Each grade represents not just academic success, but also perseverance and resilience.

"We are immensely proud of all our students, and we know that they will carry the values and lessons learned here into the bright futures that await them."

Karl Newell, Chief Executive Officer of Crompton House Multi Academy Trust, added: "As our Year 11 students move forward in their academic journey, we offer them our heartfelt congratulations and best wishes.

"Whether they choose to continue their education in Crompton House School Sixth Form or explore new horizons elsewhere, we are confident that they will carry with them the skills, knowledge, and resilience that will empower them to thrive in whatever path they choose.

"We look forward to witnessing the continued growth and accomplishments of our students as they embark on the next chapter of their lives."
