GCSE Results Day 2026: Press Release 

Pupils from The Chantry School celebrate another strong year of GCSE results. 167 pupils took GCSEs this summer, and we are incredibly proud of their achievements.  

We are proud to share with you some excellent headline figures: 70% of pupils achieved 5 GCES including English and maths at Grade 4 and above.  

As always, there are many pupils who have attained very highly and many more who have achieved their ambitious target grades. 

Thes results are testament to the pupils’ hard work. Throughout their GCSE course, they have been resilient and inspiring. I’d also like to recognise and thank their families’ support throughout their journey, and, of course, the whole staff at The Chantry for their consistent, unwavering kindness, care, and dedication for our young people which has played a vital role in their success. We wish them every success and happiness for their next chapter.
