Hockerill is very pleased with the excellent GCSE results that were published in the summer of 2022. More than half of our entries were graded 9-7, with almost a third graded 8 or 9. In addition, 93.9% of entries were a pass at grades 9-4, with 86.6% being a ‘strong’ pass graded 5 or higher. Within this, 91.6% of students achieved at least five GCSEs graded 4 and upwards, including English and Maths. Against national trends of a decline in languages and uptake of the English Baccalaureate (EBacc), 84.1% of students achieved the full suite of the EBacc with grades 9-4 in each area and 67.3% securing strong passes in every area. Almost all GCSE students at Hockerill study a GCSE curriculum of two languages and a humanity subjects.

In individual qualifications (subjects at Higher or Standard Level), Hockerill scored above the global average in 31 out of 36 areas. In six of these areas, Hockerill’s was a grade or more higher than the global average.
These results are a fantastic achievement for the students and a sum of excellent work of all staff to ensure that our exam cohorts were knowledgeable and ready for their exams, despite studying their courses with a Covid lockdown within it.
Given the uneven impact of the pandemic on school and college performance data, the government has said you should not make direct comparisons between the performance data for one school or college and another, or to data from previous years.

Most of our students go on to excellent universities, both in the UK and internationally, either straight from Year 13 or some after taking a gap year.
Hockerill students study a wide range of disciplines, this year including Medicine, Mathematics, PPE, Military History, Biological Sciences, Molecular Bioengineering, Social Anthropology, Music, International Business Management, Psychology, Law, Economics, French, Spanish and Arabic. We know that the IB Diploma prepares young people well for next steps, whether that be at university, taking an apprenticeship or going straight into the world of work, and we are incredibly proud of our graduating cohort.
