GCSE Results

Yarm School celebrated the strongest set of GCSE results in the School’s history. More than half (56%) of all grades awarded to Yarm School pupils are 9/8, and a third of all exams achieved the top 9 grade which is more than five times the average for England (6.6%).

23 pupils achieved the impressive feat of securing 10 or more 9/8 grades with an amazing seven pupils achieving 11 out of 11 grade 9s.

Results across the board were exceptional and in 16 subjects more than a third of all grades achieved were grade 9. In the School’s first year of offering Computer Science the results were outstanding with 70% grades at 9/8. English and Maths also followed this impressive trend with 65% and 58% respectively securing a grade 9/8 in these core subjects.

Dr Huw Williams, Headmaster at Yarm: “2022 has been a vintage year for pupils’ results at Yarm with these strongest ever GCSE results and record outcomes in public examinations for our A Level students.

These outstanding results reflect the determination, perseverance and ambition of our pupils and we are so proud of them all. Furthermore, they are also a strong affirmation of the quality of teaching and support given to pupils at Yarm in their academic subjects but also the pastoral care and support they received from their teachers. On the back of excellent remote learning provision the pupils have fully embraced the unique opportunities available at Yarm.”
