“Following on from our record breaking AS results last week, I congratulate Perse students on achieving the School’s best ever GCSE results with 70% of entries graded at A*. More than half the year group achieved eight or more A*s and 99% of entries were graded A* to B. These exceptional results are testimony to the talents and endeavour of our students and the quality and commitment of our teachers.”

In addition, 72 students in Year 10 took IGCSE maths a year early and all secured an A*.
