Year 11 Bosworth Academy students celebrated their GCSE results today with their friends and family. Students achieved a brilliant set of results, placing them in a strong position for the next stage of their lives – with many returning to our Sixth Form at Bosworth Academy.

“I am so proud of the achievements of our year 11 students. We celebrated their results with their parents, carers and friends this morning.

We are delighted with this year’s GCSE results. Our students have shown incredible perseverance and determination, especially in the face of the unique challenges faced over the past few years. Year 11 students had a challenging first two years at Bosworth, frequently having to learn remotely because of COVID. Their excellent outcomes are a testament to their hard work and focused learning.

Our students engaged brilliantly in all aspects of school life. They remained optimistic about what could be achieved and rose to every challenge. They have shown great student agency, embraced creativity, displayed integrity and acted responsibly to effect positive change.

We extend a heartfelt thanks to our dedicated team of Bosworth staff, who have gone above and beyond to support students’ learning and overall development, and to their parents and carers, whose unwavering support has been invaluable. We wish our year 11 students success in the future and look forward to welcoming many of them into our successful Sixth Form next week, where I know they will continue to thrive.”

Simon Brown, Headteacher

“We are so pleased for our Year 11s and proud of their fantastic achievements. As a cohort, they have been an exceptional year group, demonstrating cohesion and excellent character throughout their time with us. This has been shown in the results but also in key events such as our prom, where nearly all of Year 11s attended and behaved impeccably. We are delighted to congratulate each and every one of them on their great outcomes and look forward to seeing where their brilliant attitudes take them.”

This morning, Bosworth Academy Sixth Form students and staff were over the moon with a brilliant set of A-level and AS-level grades.

“Congratulations to all our students who received their A/AS examination results today.

This year’s results are a testament to the strength and determination of our students. They have shown incredible perseverance and deserve every accolade.

This summer, exam boards marked and graded students’ work rigorously. Our students have surpassed expectations with remarkable exam results and have secured many places at prestigious universities, including Oxbridge, and Russell Group institutions. Record numbers of students have achieved A*/A grades. Some students overcame significant personal challenges to still achieve excellent grades through their resilience and exceptional hard work.

At Bosworth Academy, we emphasise innovative teaching strategies and robust support systems, which are key factors in our students’ success. I’d like to thank our staff for their continued dedication and excellent teaching.

We are all immensely proud of our students and their commitment to excellence. Importantly, many of them have been deeply committed to supporting younger students and making a positive difference in our wider community. We are excited to see them embark on the next chapter of their academic journey or chosen profession and wish them all great success.”

Simon Brown, Headteacher

“This year as exams returned to the pre-pandemic tried and tested arrangements for exams we are incredibly impressed by the effort, commitment and resilience shown by students at both AS and A Level. They have achieved some very impressive results and I am confident the skills and qualities they have developed during their time with us will support them in their next steps, both in the world of education and beyond. Their grades will help many of them to confirm their places at university or on an apprenticeship, and I am pleased by the growing number of students who have secured places on degree apprenticeships with some very prestigious companies. This year we are seeing far more students opt for this pathway than ever before.

Student success is not just down to the students themselves, but what is also important is the support provided by teachers, parents and carers and I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone involved for their contribution. We look forward to seeing where the future takes them and hope that many will join our alumni programme to inspire future students.”

Louise Holdback, Assistant Headteacher – Sixth Form Leader

Non-Bosworth GCSE Results Guide 2024 [pdf]

Year 11 Bosworth Academy students and staff celebrated some wonderful results at GCSE level. With Ofqual ensuring GCSE outcomes return to pre-pandemic 2019 levels the high grades achieved today are significant.

Though this year’s cohort of year 11 have seen learning disrupted through the pandemic they have risen to the challenge of examinations returning nearly to normal.

“It was amazing to see so many happy students this morning, celebrating their results with their parents, carers and friends. Our year 11 students have shown real purpose these last few years in wanting to achieve above and beyond what they thought possible. They showed such determination, resilience and tenacity in rising to the challenge of 2023 exams, which Ofqual have ensured are now comparable with pre-pandemic 2019 outcomes.
I’m proud of how they have engaged in so many aspects of wider school life, remaining optimistic and motivated to overcome the challenges they had to face during a turbulent secondary education.
I’d like to thank our superb, dedicated team of staff, who have inspired and supported our students to achieve great things, at times helping students to overcome such adversity. We all wish our year 11 students success in the future, many of whom we’ll be welcoming into our successful Sixth Form next week.”

Simon Brown, Headteacher

“We are so proud of how students have done this year. Throughout their time with us they have demonstrated excellent character and citizenship, overcoming obstacles to achieve success. It was very clear, throughout the examination series, that students had grown into mature and responsible young adults and we cannot wait to see the incredible contributions they will make to society in the future.”

Tom Worn, Assistant Headteacher; Key Stage 4

All students listed above will continue on with their studies at A Level at Bosworth Academy.

Today Bosworth Academy Sixth Form students and staff are celebrating a fantastic set of A level and AS level grades.

“Huge congratulations to all of our students who have received their A/AS examination results today. They have remained resilient and worked exceptionally hard, under challenging circumstances, with these A-levels being the first set of public examinations that they have sat. Throughout their time at Bosworth Academy they have focused exceptionally well, shown true grit and determination to overcome any difficulties, and remained enthusiastic about learning. There have been so many outstanding and inspirational student achievements today that we are so proud of. It’s been great to see so many students achieving places on their first choice University courses, especially considering the concerning stories we heard about this in the press over the summer.

Our incredible teachers and support staff deserve a big thank you for their dedication and commitment in helping our students achieve these great milestones. We wish our students great success in the next stage of their lives with many exploring undergraduate degrees, beginning an apprenticeship or employment. We are excited to hear about what our students will achieve in the future and encourage them to keep in touch.”

Simon Brown, Headteacher

“I would like to take this opportunity to recognise and congratulate the effort, commitment and achievement of our sixth form students receiving grades today. Some sat externally assessed exams for the first time and they have achieved a great set of results.

These grades will help many of them to confirm their places at university or on an apprenticeship, and I am pleased by the growing number of students who have secured places on degree apprenticeships with some very prestigious companies.

Although academic achievement is important, we know that one of the most valuable measures of success is the ability for students to have developed the skills to enable them to flourish in whichever pathway they choose, those of communication, collaboration, critical thinking, character, creativity and citizenship. It is important to recognise the hard work and commitment of our students, but also the school staff and parents/carers during another difficult year. I want to wish our students the very best for their next steps and look forward to hearing about their achievements.”

Louise Holdback, Assistant Headteacher – Sixth Form Leader

2023 examination results are significant as Ofqual have returned to pre-pandemic grading meaning that national results will be more comparable with pre-pandemic 2019 outcomes.

Senior examiners have importantly reviewed the quality of student work, and made allowances this summer where national performance is lower than before the pandemic due to disruption. Universities are aware of the approach to grading in 2023 and have taken this into account when making offers.

Some individual successes included:

This year we have seen outstanding success with many students achieving 3 or more A* grades at A level. Students who have particularly excelled include:

• Samantha Martin who will read History at Somerville College at the University of Oxford.
• Brian Mok who will read Mechanical Engineering at Loughborough University achieved 4A*s in Chemistry, Physics, Maths and Further Maths.
• Imogen Ashcroft who will read Medicine at the University of Sheffield achieved 3A*s in Biology, Chemistry and Psychology.

GCSE Results Day | Thursday 24th August 2023

GCSE Results for Summer 2023 will be given out in the compass. Collection will be from 8.30am on Thursday 24th August. Please remember to bring your school iPad back if you haven’t yet returned it to avoid delays in receiving your results. We look forward to seeing you there.

We would like to invite you to attend an information evening for parents/guardians of students studying Level 3 courses at Bosworth Academy on Monday, 12 September 2022, from 5.00 pm – 6.00 pm. Students are welcome to attend with their parents/carers.

The transition from GCSE to A level is a steep learning curve and parents/carers play a huge role in maximising the achievement of their children.

During the evening information will be shared on the target setting process, as well as expectations at Post 16. This will then be followed by a question and answer session.

This morning year 11 Bosworth Academy students and staff celebrated some brilliant results at GCSE level. With the return of summer examinations, all students were assessed on the same national basis for the first time since 2019. Bosworth students rose to every challenge during their key stage 4 studies, they showed such determination, resilience and strength that must be recognised.

We have always known that this year was a ‘transition year’ between 2021 (when assessment was done directly by schools and colleges) and 2019 (the last year exams took place). This does not mean that marking was more generous or harsher – expert examiners applied mark schemes as fairly as ever and grade boundaries were set by exam boards at a mid-point between these two years.

Simon Brown, Headteacher
“Huge congratulations to our wonderful GCSE students who have achieved such great grades after a tough couple of years. Though they missed such a large proportion of their GCSE years they were relentless in their strive for excellence. Some of our students have overcome challenging personal circumstances through sheer hard work and determination. We are all so very proud of them.
Our year 11 students engaged brilliantly with remote and hybrid learning and took up the wealth of support opportunities offered by Bosworth staff.
It was great to see our staff celebrating with students and their parents and carers this morning. Their great achievements mean so much to us all – I’d like to give a special thanks to all of our staff for the incredible lengths they have gone to in supporting our students. We wish every single one of them success in the future and will be welcoming many into our successful Sixth Form next week.”

Rebecca Harbour, Assistant Head of School Key Stage 4
“This group of young people have experienced a really turbulent few years. From periods of time working remotely at home to uncertainty in how they will be assessed, they have continually impressed us with their resilience, determination and commitment. They worked so hard throughout their time with us, adapting and rising to every challenge. We are, of course, proud of the results they received today but more importantly, we are hugely proud of the character they have shown and will continue to show as they move onto their next chapter. May today be an opportunity for you all, along with your teachers and parents/carers to celebrate all that you have achieved.”

Some individual successes and quotes:
Jake H achieved grades 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 8 Jake commented: “It’s been a really good experience. I’ve really enjoyed my time at Bosworth. I have particularly enjoyed History which has inspired me to learn more about the world around me.”

Outstanding Results: Kirsty M; Jake W; Molly O; Aryan G; Kyle J; Lara C & Johnny P

Student Tadiwa M commented “It’s been a wild journey. I went from failing everything earlier in the year to doing really well. I revised a lot to get to this point! I would advise younger students to not put too much stress on yourselves but work hard.”

Student Sanna R commented “I’m really pleased with my results as I worked really hard. The teachers at Bosworth were really supportive and cared about me doing well”.

Student Nathan B commented “I’ve had the best time at Bosworth Academy. The pandemic made the exams a challenge but I worked hard and smashed it. Thank you to all the teachers and my Mum & Dad”.

Bosworth Academy Sixth Form students and staff are once more celebrating excellent A level and AS level qualifications.

This year, summer exams returned, with all students being assessed on the same national basis for the first time since 2019. Their exam scripts were marked by experienced examiners who used the normal mark scheme and approached it neither more harshly nor more generously.

To reach this stage, our students have shown real dedication to their studies and resilience in sitting formal exams and coursework assessments after the disruption of the pandemic. Our Sixth Form students faced public examinations for the first time since primary school after the cancellation of their GCSEs.

Simon Brown, Headteacher

“We are all so incredibly proud of what our students have achieved this year. They have overcome an unprecedented tough two years, and faced so many challenges since their GCSEs were abruptly cancelled in 2019. Throughout their time in the Sixth Form they have remained resilient and versatile – adapting to online remote learning and new forms of assessment during their Year 12. There have been many stunning performances from students across so many different subjects – it has been a delight to celebrate with students and their parents today. Our students are exceptional and simply inspirational!
For the last two years there has been a lot of uncertainty in education about 2022 assessments which, of course, has made this an anxious time for our young people. Students have also faced tough competition gaining University offers with a high rise in applicants this year following the pandemic.
Students and staff have remained resolute, focused on learning and have adapted to whatever new challenges have arisen. I’d like to thank our committed staff for their tireless support in preparing our students for such success. Their support has enabled our students to progress onto higher education or employment, and we look forward to finding out what our students will achieve in the future.”

Louise Holdback, Assistant Headteacher – Sixth Form Leader

“We would like to recognise and congratulate the effort, commitment and achievement of all our young people following the significant number of qualifications confirmed today. Having juggled online and ‘Covid’ learning they have achieved an amazing set of results.
These grades will help many of them to secure their first choice place at university or on an apprenticeship, and this year we are pleased by the growing number of students who have secured places on apprenticeships with some very prestigious local companies.
Alongside their academic success we know that one of the most important measures of success is the ability for pupils to go on to positive destinations after they leave school, equipped for the next step in their journey. I am delighted that the majority of our leavers are continuing to higher education or an apprenticeship having finished school. Today’s success is testament to the hard work and commitment of our students, school staff and parents/carers throughout another challenging year. We would like to wish our students the very best for their future and look forward to seeing where it takes them. We hope many will keep in touch.”
