GCSE
Results
2026 saw pupils celebrate another outstanding set of GCSE results. The school is delighted to report that 58% of all grades were grade 9, 83% grades 9-8 and 93% grades 9-7.
Over a third of the year group (34 pupils) achieved 10 grades 9-8 – many maintaining their studies while performing on stage or representing the school in competitive sport. 10 pupils were awarded 10 grade 9s, and 15 achieved 9 grade 9s. 9 was also the most common grade awarded to pupils in receipt of bursaries.
Pupils have excelled in a host of subjects this year, with their success in STEM matched by their performance across the breadth of the curriculum. 91% of grades across Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Maths and Computer Science were 8 and above; while 89% of grades in Modern Foreign Languages (French, German, Mandarin and Spanish) were also 8 and above. In Theology, 86% of grades were 9 and in PE, taken at MCS for the first time this year, 75% of pupils secured 8 or above.
Master Helen Pike said: “Our Fifth Form pupils threw themselves into their GCSEs with the energy and commitment they bring to every part of school life, and their remarkable achievements in these examinations are matched by the many ways in which they have contributed to and enriched our community beyond the classroom. We look forward to seeing them return, alongside our new pupils, to the Sixth Form in a few weeks’ time. Congratulations to them, and to the teachers and parents who have guided and encouraged them along the way.”
Individual successes include Jimmie, Lucas, Ruishi, Aidan, Aaron, Finn, Jay, Christian, Jonathan and Arthur, who all achieved 10 grade 9s. Former Chorister Al, who was crowned BBC Young Chorister of the Year in October, achieved grades 9 and 8 in all his exams. Enrico, Micah, Kuzey, Aryan and Owen maintained their studies alongside rehearsals for the recent production of Sherlock Holmes and the Napoleon of Crime at the Oxford Playhouse, while Derek, James and Henry represented the School at the highest levels in tennis, hockey and cricket respectively.
