The Manchester Grammar School is celebrating another year of outstanding examination results for its year 11 pupils.
Pupils arrived at school today, 25 August 2022, to pick up their GCSE results.
Almost half of all the grades achieved, 49%, were at the very highest grade 9 level and 73% of all grades achieved were 9 or 8.
20 MGS pupils achieved the highest grade possible in all their subjects, a truly outstanding achievement and 60 achieved all grade 9 or 8.
121 MGS pupils were awarded all 9, 8 and 7 grades.
These GCSE results follow another outstanding set of A-level results for MGS pupils last week, with 43% of all grades at A*, 74% at A* or A, and 90% at A*, A or B (or Pre-U equivalent).
This level of performance puts MGS in a very select group of schools nationally.
Arron Donn, from Whitefield, one of the many Jewish pupils in the year group, has had great success, achieving 10 grade 9s, which is a truly wonderful achievement. He plans to study Economics, Politics, Philosophy and History at A Level, and has enjoyed playing the piano alongside his academic studies.
The School’s High Master, Dr Martin Boulton, said, “Following a very challenging few years, this group of pupils should be very proud of such an outstanding set of results. Our pupils can now approach the next exciting stage of their academic careers with real confidence.”
“I would like to thank our dedicated staff for the work they have done to support our pupils through their GCSEs.”
