2023 GCSE Results Day

Fantastic Results and  celebrations all around on GCSE results day

QEH Year 11’s outcomes were a cause for celebration as we maintained our strong track record for success. Across Wales GCSE outcomes are down on last year as results move closer to pre-pandemic levels. QEH’s strong performance at A*-C off-sets the well-publicised squeeze at the top end of GCSE results.

Year 11 have to be praised for their hard work and positive approach to their examinations as we returned to normal exams. The dedication and commitment of our staff ensured that pupils were well prepared and well motivated, in their approach to the exams. This team effort between pupils and staff is evident in these fantastic results. Well done everyone!

  • 19% of our pupils achieved at least 5 GCSEs or equivalent at grade A* or A
  • 74% of pupils achieved at least 5 GCSEs or equivalent at A*-C – significantly above the Welsh average
  • 2% of pupils achieved 5 GCSEs or equivalent including English and Maths
  • 7% A*-G or equivalent – above the average for Wales
  • 100% of Year 11 pupils leave with a recognised qualification

2023 GCE Results Day

A day of high achievements and success for QEH as we return to pre-covid standards.

As anticipated and widely publicised, this year has seen a return to the pre-covid levels of marking and grading by the exam boards. Students faced normal examination conditions for the first time in three years. Marking of papers and assessment were back in line with pre-covid guidance.

We are delighted to be here to celebrate with our students this morning as they receive their results and to support them as they embark on their future pathways whether that be at university, apprenticeships or the world of work. We are very pleased to say that QEH continues to build on its trend for outstanding Post 16 achievement with strong outcomes that are in line with our excellent 2019 pre-covid results.

Reflecting on our moto Ymlaen Gyda’n Gilydd/Moving Forward Together, our staff have continued to work exceptionally hard to support our learners in coming to terms with a full exams programme. On this AS and A Level Results Day we would also like to take this opportunity to thank our whole community for their continued support. As always, our focus continues to be one of developing individual potential, and in this context we have exceeded our outcomes from 2019 in two out of three categories and matched the third:

  • 29% of grades awarded were A*-A – in line with 2019 outcomes
  • 77% of grades awarded were A*-C – an increase on 2019
  • 97% of grades awarded were A*-E – up on 2019
