GCSEs

Congratulations to all our Year 11 students for achieving another fantastic set of examination results in their GCSEs. We are proud of the fantastic outcomes for our students.

This year, we are incredibly pleased to share that 48% of all grades were between 7-9, 66% were 6 and above, and 85% 4 and above.

On average over the last two years our Value Added data for GCSEs indicate our students performed at +1.26 VA for average grades in all subjects. This means that for the last two years running, RIS students, on average, made over one grade of progress per subject higher than their Minimum Expected Grades.
