Summer 2026
Results for summer 2026 will be published here after results day in August 2026, once every pupil has received their grades and we have been able to speak to each family.
Pupils at Emmanuel sit GCSEs with AQA and Eduqas at the end of Cedar, our Year 11 class.
Reading our results
Our GCSE cohorts are small — usually fewer than a dozen pupils, and in one recent year a single pupil. That has consequences worth understanding before you look at any figures.
One pupil can shift a percentage by ten points or more. A child having a difficult year, or a child doing unexpectedly well, changes the headline in a way it never would at a school of a thousand.
Comparing us year on year, or against a large secondary, therefore tells you very little. We publish the number of pupils alongside every figure so that you can see exactly what each percentage rests on.
We would rather you asked us about these numbers than drew conclusions from them.

| Entries graded 7 or above | 14 of 56 |
| Subject | Entries | Grades |
|---|---|---|

Summer 2025
Only one pupil sat GCSEs in summer 2025.
We do not publish figures for a cohort of one. Any percentage would identify that pupil and tell you nothing useful about the school. He sat six subjects and left us for further education.
If you would like to discuss that year, please ask.
Summer 2023
| Pupils in the cohort | 8 |
| Grade 4 or above in English and mathematics | 2 of 8 |
| Entries graded 4 or above | 30 of 58 |
| Entries graded 7 or above | 1 of 58 |
| Subject | Entries | Grades |
|---|---|---|
| Mathematics | 8 | 8 to 1 |
| English Language | 7 | 6 to 2 |
| English Literature | 6 | 6 to 4 |
| Combined Science (double award) | 7 | 6-5 to 2-1 |
| Business | 6 | 4 to 2 |
| French | 5 | 6 to 3 |
| Art | 3 | 5 to 3 |
| Computer Science | 4 | 2, with one ungraded |
| Geography | 1 | 5 |
| Physical Education (short course) | 4 | 3 to 2 |
2023 was a harder year than 2024, and the figures show it. We would rather publish both than only the better one.
What figures do not show
A grade tells you where a pupil finished. It does not tell you where they started, and for a number of our pupils that distance is the real achievement.
Some arrive with us having found school difficult elsewhere. Some arrive partway through their secondary years with ground to make up. Several of the pupils in the years above joined us after a hard time somewhere else, and left with qualifications nobody would have predicted for them.
If you want to understand what we add rather than what we select, ask us about individual pupils when you visit. We will tell you honestly.
Questions about results?
Andy Harris, Head Teacher, is happy to talk through what these figures mean for your child.
