GCSE Results

Â鶹ÉäÇø is celebrating its best ever GCSE examination results with 54% of all grades awarded being the top 9-8 grades (A*), with a third of all grades at grade 9.

Yarm surpassed the national average number of grade 9s by more than 6 times. Yarm pupils got more than four times the national average for grades 9-8. The national average was 12.1% compared to our 54% of grades 9-8 (A*). In the North East 17.8% of all GCSE grades were a 7 or higher compared to Yarm’s 75% – again more than four times higher.

More than 21% of the cohort (27 pupils) gained a straight set of 9/8 grades with 15 pupils achieving the impressive feat of 10 or more grade 9s.

One pupil was recognised as one of the top performers in the country in his OCR Computer Science exam.

Our pupils broke Yarm’s GCSE records by beating the top grades achieved in examinations in previous years but have also performed impressively outside the classroom. The 2024 GCSE cohort has also excelled in a wide range of extracurricular activities, showcasing their talents on national stages in sports, music, and drama.

These outstanding results reflect the determination and ambition of our pupils. Furthermore, they are also a strong affirmation of the quality of teaching and support given to pupils at Yarm.

We encourage every pupil to be the best they can be, only only in the classroom, but on the stage, sports field or in the varied clubs and activities on offer at the School. Pupils at Yarm balance both academic and extracurricular success at Yarm and help pupils develop ‘soft’ skills that are not only highly sought after by universities and employers, but prepare our pupils for challenges beyond school. Encapsulating the School’s ethos ‘Educating for Life.

Within these impressive results are a range of individual success stories that reflect personal endeavour, exceeding their own expectations and aspirations. We celebrate the success of these terrific year groups who have contributed a huge amount to the wider life of the school.
