Results

GCSE results, summer 2025

29 pupils sat their GCSEs. Here is how they did against every state secondary in England.

The government hasn't published this school's headline results. That usually means the year group was too small to publish without identifying children.

Getting a place

Admissions policy not published.

Each council publishes its own figures on how many families applied and how far away the last child to get a place lived. We are adding councils one at a time. If you have a link to Greenwich council's admissions booklet, send it to us.
