Examination Results
GCSE Results 2024
Once again, our students at St Benedict’s School have achieved excellent GCSE results this year.
42.5% of all exams taken were graded 9 or 8 (A*), and 65% were graded 9 - 7 (A*or A), which maintains the very strong academic results in recent years.
St Benedict’s continues to add significant value, when we take into account the starting points of our young people in year 7, and their GCSE outcomes at the end of year 11.
Joe Smith, Headmaster, said of the very strong set of results achieved, "I am very pleased with the GCSE results which our Year 11 students have achieved this year. My congratulations to the young people who have achieved these excellent results, alongside contributing to the school in a myriad of other ways over the course of the year. I wish them well for their future studies, be it at St Benedict's or elsewhere."
A Level Results 2024
We are delighted to report an outstanding set of results from this year’s A Level students and are incredibly proud of all our students for their hard work, determination, and resilience over this past academic year.
We continue the strong upward trend in public exam results seen at St Benedict’s over recent years.
Headmaster, Joe Smith, commented, "I am absolutely delighted for our young people who have achieved these superb A level grades, the best in the school's history under normal assessment circumstances. Our 2024 leavers have worked extremely hard and deserve all their success. For over half the grades to be at A*or A, and 84% at A*, A or B, is the mark of an academically very serious school indeed.”
The vast majority of our students are heading to their preferred choice university destinations, including over 90% to top 10 institutions and those which form part of the Russell Group.
The recent ISI inspection report, published earlier this year (January 2024), underpins the school’s careers guidance arrangements as an ‘area of significant strength’ which relates to our preparation of our young people for their lives beyond school.
