21 August 2025Congratulations to North Gosforth Academy students on their GCSE results Your hard work, resilience, and determination have paid off, and we are incredibly proud of every student's achievement.
Our Head of School, Susanna Cooke, expressed her pride, "We are thrilled to celebrate our students' achievements today. They have shown remarkable commitment and worked exceptionally hard. It is particularly pleasing to see so many students exceed their predicted scores. This is a testament to their dedication and the support from our dedicated staff, parents and carers. Everyone involved should feel proud today."
Special congratulations go out to Jack Armstrong who achieved 7 grade 9's and 1 grade 8, Harry Graham who achieved 3 grade 9's and 5 grade 8's. Taylor Knight who achieved 2 grade 9's and 6 grade 8's and Dara Faseun who achieved 3 grade 9's and 5 grade 8's.
This year, our academy has seen some brilliant outcomes and further improvements on last year's results as we continue to make positive progress and support our students to reach their full potential. We are especially pleased to see impressive results in key subject areas:
66% of students obtained a pass in English
77% of students obtained a pass in Maths
61% of students obtained a pass in both English and Maths combined
It is encouraging to see some students remain within our Trust, the Gosforth Group, and join one of our successful Sixth Forms to study A Levels and vocational subjects. We are also delighted to see students opting for other pathways, such as apprenticeships, traineeships, or employment.
We wish all our students ongoing success and happiness for the future.

View PostGosforth Academy celebrate outstanding GCSE results. We are thrilled to share in our students' celebrations this morning following another year of exceptional GCSE results. Preit Chahal, Principal, expressed his delight in the results this morning and commented, "We are incredibly proud of all of our students' GCSE achievements. It's fair to say this year group has had its challenges with missing out on vital development during the Covid years. Their commitment and resilience have been inspiring, and they fully deserve today's success. It is fantastic to see so many of them enrol into our Sixth Form today to study a wide range of A Level and vocational subjects, alongside many new students from across the North. It is also great to see some students move on to take up apprenticeships, training courses and specialist college courses. At Gosforth Academy, we are committed to creating futures, and today's results demonstrate how ready our students are to seize the opportunities ahead of them." However, special mention must go to Isla Cook and Zein Nassar, who managed an exceptional clean sweep of Grade 9s! Some brief headline figures of Gosforth Academy's outstanding results include: 77% of students achieved Grade 4+ grades in English and Maths compared to a National of 67%. 80% of students achieved a Grade 4+ in two Science subjects 290 Grade 9s were awarded across the cohort! The average grade for all entries was 5.4 compared to a National of 4.6. Irrespective of grades, we are immensely proud of all of our students who have achieved the grades they need to take them to their next stage. #GosforthAcademy #GosforthGroup #CreatingFutures #ProudMoment #GCSEResultsDay
