Duke of Kent School celebrates its first ever Year 11 GCSE results PDF Print E-mail

Congratulations to all our GCSE candidates! All Year 11 pupils have achieved - and indeed exceeded - the grades required to proceed to their chosen schools and colleges for A Level study. In what is being reported as the toughest GCSE cycle ever, and against a national target for schools of 40% of pupils achieving 5 passes at GCSE including English and Mathematics, 100% of Duke of Kent Year 11 pupils exceeded this benchmark.

88% of all Year 11 subject grades were in the A* to C range, with 57% at A* to B and 25% at A* to A. In Mathematics, 43% of results were achieved at A* to A; in English Language 71% of results were A* to A.

These results reflect the hard work of the pupils and their teachers and we warmly congratulate all involved in the process.

Our aim as a school is to nurture the talents and energy of each pupil in as creative and vibrant a way as possible. The quality we most like to see, from prospective and current pupils, is a spirit of enquiry. It is this spirit that produces a real appetite for learning and development.

Our programme requires a great deal of commitment from pupils and teachers. This commitment grows naturally in the unique atmosphere we have created at this school.

  • Parental requests over many years
  • Needed within the locality
  • Existing facilities already appropriate for the new age-range
  • Enables the School to attract pupils from a wider geographical radius
  • Freedom from previous constitutional constriction
