Academic Results for Boundary Oak School

As an academically selective school, which aims to cater for pupils with a wide range of abilities, we are incredibly proud of our results over the last few years.

The combination of being a small school with Year 11 cohorts that average 20 – 30 pupils, with the recent oscillation between exam and centre assessed grades means we feel a three year rolling average of GCSE results provides a more accurate representation of our pupils’ attainment.

The unerring dedication of our teachers, be it planning, mentoring, intervention and support, enables our pupils to reach their potential, while growing into well rounded individuals, fully prepared for the next stage of their academic career.

Boundary Oak School prides itself on its ethos of fostering an enjoyment of learning and promoting a growth mindset and these results are a testament to that.
