Esher Church of England High School is celebrating another year of outstanding success in this summer’s GCSE and vocational examinations, with students achieving record-setting results across the board.

This year, 80% of all GCSE and Level 2 qualifications were achieved at grade 4 and above.

Headteacher, Mr Andy King, said:
“I am immensely proud of our students. They have shown such resilience, commitment and determination throughout their education with us, and today we see the reward for all that hard work. These results are truly outstanding, and every student should be proud of what they have achieved. Not only are they leaving with well-deserved results, but they have developed and grown into amazing young people who will continue to thrive and achieve great things in whatever path they choose.”
