Exceptional GCSE Results

12th August 21

Abbey College Cambridge students achieved 45% GCSEs at grades 9-8 in 2021

Our Abbey College Cambridge GCSE students have yet again achieved an impressive set of results in 2021.
From a total of 207 GCSEs sat, 25% were awarded the top grade of 9, and nearly half achieved 9-8 grades. Over three quarters of grades received were in the 9-6 range.  The pass rate was 100%.

Abbey College Cambridge 2021 GCSE Results:

25%          45%     65%           78%             95%         100%

This year GCSE grades throughout the UK have been determined by teacher assessment, as the covid-19 pandemic caused schools to be closed for parts of the year and a lot of disruption to teaching and learning.

Speaking about the student’s success, College Principal Dr Julian Davies commented; ‘I’m incredibly proud of the maturity and resilience demonstrated by our GCSE students in dealing so admirably with such difficult and strange circumstance this year. These exceptional results are truly well-deserved, and we look forward to welcoming them back in September to continue their A-Level studies after a well earned summer rest.’
