Pupils from Akeley Wood School in North Buckinghamshire are celebrating outstanding GCSE results today, with nearly a third of all grades awarded at levels 7 to 9 (A**, A* and A). At over 20% above the 2024 National Average, we are also delighted that 89.4% of all grades were awarded at levels 4 to 9 reflecting the hard work, dedication and resilience of our Year 11 students.

The staff at the school wish to congratulate all of their Year 11 pupils who have worked so hard during their GCSE courses.

One of our talented students shared: ‘I’ve only got one 8 and the rest 9’s. The teachers are so friendly and over the years I have developed a passion for this school. I’m really keen to stay on for AW6’. We are thrilled that Jake will be studying Maths, French and Geography A-Levels.

Their hard work, resilience, and dedication have truly paid off, and these achievements reflect not only their individual efforts but also the supportive and inspiring environment we foster at Akeley Wood School. These results are a testament to the commitment of our staff and the strength of our community. I look forward to seeing how these young people will continue to flourish as they embark on the next chapter of their educational journey’.
