Students at Latymer Upper School are celebrating an outstanding set of GCSE results. 92% of grades were at A*/A, and more than 68% were at A*. Students performed incredibly well in the core subjects: 97% of maths papers were graded A*/A. 27 students were awarded at least 10 A*s many, such as Sophie Holmes - a promising rower, whilst achieving success in a whole range of extra-curricular activities. 63 students gained 9 or more A*s and 85 students gained 8 or more A*s which is more than half the year group. Twins, Alp and Yigit Ergin, clocked up 15 A*s and 5 grade As between them! Head, David Goodhew says: “My warmest congratulations to Year 11 on their spectacular GCSE results – over 1000 A* grades! " I am so pleased for the pupils, who have worked hard to do so well, and their teachers, who have inspired and cared for them. " This academic success is a fitting companion to their accomplishments throughout the year in sport, music, drama and art. I am excited to see what they will go on to achieve in the Sixth Form, and beyond!" This follows equally excellent results at A Level for Latymer Upper students. Over 70% of all results were A* and A grades, with over 30% at A*. Over 100 students took four A Levels or more, and the average UCAS points per candidate was equivalent to over three A* grades per student. August 13, 2015
