"Best Ever" GCSE Results Published


Girls continue to outperform boys but the gap has narrowed

Schools Minister Vernon Coaker congratulated pupils, teachers and schools as the new figures published today, Wednesday 13th January 2010, show another year of improvements.

Today’s final 2009 national, local authority and school-level GCSE results show:

• London schools are top performers out of the English regions with 54.0 per cent of pupils getting five good GCSEs including English and maths – compared to 29.9 per cent in 1997 when it was amongst the bottom

• In line with other countries, girls continue to outperform boys, but the gap has narrowed by 0.7 percentage points with 54.4 per cent of girls achieving five or more grades A*-C compared to 47.1 per cent of boys

The table below shows how the local state and independent schools which serve the Ealing area fared with pupils' GCSE results:
