Haberdashers’ Adams Celebrates Excellent GCSE Results

Haberdashers’ Adams is pleased to announce that GCSE pupils have achieved an excellent set of results. 

A cohort of 148 pupils completed their GCSE studies at Adams, with almost every pupil studying ten subjects, resulting in a pass rate of 93% (grades 9 - 5). 81% of pupils achieved grades 9 - 6, 59% of pupils achieved grades 9 - 7 and 39% of pupils achieved the highest grades of 9 - 8. In addition there were some incredible individual achievements to celebrate. A total of 24 pupils secured grades 9 - 7 (formerly A*/A) in all ten of their subjects and 2 pupils achieved a straight set of ten GCSEs at grade 9 (formerly A*). 

At Adams, pupils sit ten GCSEs including three separate sciences, a language, a humanity, a performance subject (art, drama, music or PE), maths and English. We believe passionately in giving pupils every opportunity to grow into interesting, balanced, confident and articulate young people. There were some particularly high results in the sciences and maths but also in the humanities (geography, history and religious studies).

Headmaster Gary Hickey said: “I’m thrilled to share an excellent set of results and extend my heartfelt congratulations to all our pupils. They’ve worked incredibly hard to achieve these results, supported along the way by our dedicated staff, whose unwavering support and guidance have been instrumental in helping our pupils succeed.” 

Incoming Head Mr Biggins added: "We’re delighted that the majority of our pupils will be continuing their journey with us in the Sixth Form, where they’ll benefit from an environment that fosters both academic excellence and personal development. Whether they continue into our Sixth Form or pursue alternative pathways, we are incredibly proud of all our pupils and wish them well for the bright futures ahead of them. We also look forward to welcoming new pupils, from other schools, and are excited to see what they will bring to Haberdashers' Adams.”
