Year 11 students at Mossbourne Port Side Academy are today celebrating record-breaking success in their GCSE results.  As well as an amazing increase in progress and attainment from last year, today’s results represent the best the school has ever achieved.

Significant improvements have been celebrated across the school with results, on average, more to half a grade in every subject.  In English and Mathematics, where results in most categories are now above national averages, a host of school records have been broken with the numbers achieving national benchmarks soaring and outstripping previous years:

English and Mathematics combined:

• 43% achieved 5+ in both English and Mathematics.  This is 7% higher than last year and a record high result for the school.
• 70% achieved 4+ in both English and Mathematics.  This is a brilliant 14% improvement and a record best for the school.

English:

• 51% achieved 5+ in English, up from 47% last year and, outside of covid inflation years, a record best for the school.
• 79% achieved 4+ in English. This is a massive 17% higher than 2024 and, again, a record best for the school.

Mathematics:

• 57% achieved 5+ in Mathematics, up 10% on last year and, a record best for the school.
• 79% achieved 4+ in Mathematics.  This impressive 12% rise from last year makes it another record best result for the school.
• Those awarded a Grade 7 or higher in Maths jumped to 20%.

These record-breaking results represent a fabulous achievement for students and are the culmination of so much hard work from both students and staff.  But more than that, such improved results open many more doors and provide our students with so much more choice and opportunity in deciding what is next for them.

The brilliant results this group of Year 11s have demonstrated show just what can be achieved by shedding excuses, striving for excellence and demanding the very best of yourself.  We are so proud of what they have been able to achieve and we are delighted that their hard work has paid off.
