Results that speak for themselves
Having created an environment where academic work can flourish, we nurture it with enthusiasm.
Notre Dame Senior School has, over the past many years, achieved consistently excellent GCSE results. Each year we strive for excellence, aiming to maintain or improve on our girls’ academic results whilst balancing the rigours of academic success with a broad range of extra-curricular activities.
GCSE Results
Following on from the outstanding A Level success of last week, Notre Dame Senior School continues to celebrate. Today's GCSE results show that all students achieved at least five A* to C grades, with almost 90% of all GCSE grades A*, A or B.
Twenty seven girls achieved eight or more A/A* grades - that is almost 40% of the year group. Three girls gained A* grades in all 10 of their subjects. We are delighted with these outcomes which show continuous improvement and which reflect the value that has been added where girls have achieved beyond potential and prediction.
