St Mark’s School 2024 GCSE Results
Class of 2024 Celebrating GCSE Accomplishments at St Mark’s School
We are delighted to be celebrating a fantastic set of results by our students in their GCSE exams this summer. We are incredibly proud of all our students who have put in so much hard work. The students have achieved 75.7% at grade 9 – 4 in English and 64.9% at grade 9 – 4 in Maths.
The school’s vision is geared around promoting self-worth in students to inspire them to live well, achieve their goals and be a force for good both in school and the world beyond. Our Year 11 class of 2024 have proved, unequivocally, that St Mark’s is a school that supports students to achieve the very best exam results across all academic subjects.
This year’s positive GCSE progress outcomes of +0.77 is a stunning result which has put us easily in the top 10% nationally.
Judging by how hard they worked during their time at the school, we had exceptionally high expectations of our GCSE Class of 2024; today they celebrated the grades they worked so hard to achieve.
Whilst we are proud of all of our students’ achievements, the following students deserve recognition for achieving top grades across a range of different subjects:

The school’s Headteacher, Clare England, commented, “We are immensely proud of our Year 11 students’ achievements and of the way in which they conducted themselves through the exams. All of that hard work has really paid off and I am delighted to see so many students excelling! Both Mr Ash and I agree that this cohort of students have been a great year group of students to work with. They have done all that we have asked of them to achieve so well and as a result, have done themselves, their parents and St Mark’s proud!
We would also like to say a big thank you to our parents who have encouraged and supported their children to do their best. Our teachers have also worked tirelessly in school to ensure that our students are now able to progress onto their chosen next steps, and we look forward to seeing what they will achieve in the future.
St Mark’s has been on an amazing journey of improvement since joining the Midsomer Norton Schools’ Partnership. The school is categorised as a ‘Good’ school by OFSTED and also by SIAMS; both inspections validated the wonderful work of the St Mark’s staff team.
