GCSEs 2022

A huge well done to Year 11 on a fantastic set of GCSE results today.  With 87% of results graded 9 to 5 and 41% awarded the top grades of 9 to 7, our biggest ever Year 11 cohort has every reason to be delighted.

Head, Fraser Halliwell, says “Our pupils have excelled themselves with an outstanding set of GCSE results this year.  Despite the much-publicised dip in grades from last year, the proportion of pupils achieving grades 9-5 has remained very similar.  This is testament to the sharp focus on personalised support offered at Radnor House, as well as the courage and perseverance displayed by our pupils and staff.  On behalf of the whole community, I congratulate the pupils for their achievement and look forward to seeing them next week as they start their A-level studies.”.

A Levels 2022

We are delighted to be congratulating our Year 13 pupils on a very strong set of A level and EPQ results which are testimony to the hard work and dedication shown towards their first set of formal exams.

Head, Fraser Halliwell, said “Our Sixth Form students have excelled in their performance this year, especially given the challenges of the last couple of years and their relative inexperience in public examinations. I continue to be impressed by the courage and perseverance of this cohort and know that they are well prepared for undergraduate life. I wish them all the best and look forward to celebrating future successes with them.”

This year's results show an excellent improvement on the last time exams were sat in 2019 with 44% of grades awarded being A-A*, 67% of grades A*-B and a 100% pass mark overall. 

The strength of the grades achieved reflects the wide range of subjects offered at Radnor which allows pupils to choose options that best suit their talents, interests and aspirations.  The broad Sixth Form experience ensures pupils are well prepared for university entry and future employment and we wish our Year 13 leavers the very best as they embark on their next steps.

The Year 11 and 13 students at Radnor House Sevenoaks have achieved the best results in the school’s history.  Following a challenging two-years of GCSE and A-level study, our students have shown true courage and perseverance to secure outstanding attainment.

At GCSE, 57% of grades awarded were 9-7 (an increase of 7% on last year), with 72% of grades at 9-6, 89% at 9-5 and 100% A*-C in the Higher Project Qualification (44% A*-A).  In the Sixth Form, the headline figures were 67% A*-A and 87% A*-B at A-level and 100% A*-C in the Extended Project (80% A*-A).  These results are indicative of the dedication and hard work of our students and the excellent teaching and support they received in school and online over the last two years.

At A-level, Xanthe deserves a special mention for achieving A* grades in all subjects and EPQ, which see her taking a place at St Peter’s College, University of Oxford next year.  Angel also achieved A* grades in all of her subjects and EPQ and will be studying at the University of Exeter.  We are delighted that all our Year 13 students’ fulfilled their aspirations by gaining entry to their first choice university and course.

Fraser Halliwell, Head of Radnor House Sevenoaks, congratulated the students this morning for their achievements, “Today is the culmination of many years of hard work and dedication for our students and their teachers.  A lot will be said about the high grades achieved this year, but I know how successful our school has been in providing excellent education both in person and online during lockdown.  Believe me – our Year 11 and 13 students have undergone an exceptionally rigorous assessment process.  All have demonstrated profound knowledge and understanding of their full GCSE and A-level courses and have developed into well-rounded, confident young adults.  As such, they are properly prepared for the academic and personal challenges of Sixth Form and university life next year.  I wish each of them well and look forward to celebrating their future successes.”
