Secondary students across Merton received their GCSE and vocational results today, marking another year of achievement. 

These results and achievements made by students reflect the dedication of the students and their teachers, school leaders, families and carers.

Whilst early figures show that national outcomes in English and Maths have fallen, indicative results show that Merton students are continuing to perform well.  

Councillor Sally Kenny, Cabinet Member for Jobs, Skills and Education, joined students at Raynes Park High School to share in their celebrations. She said:

Congratulations to all our young people receiving their GCSE results today. We are incredibly proud of your hard work, dedication and determination, and we are excited to see the next steps in your journey.

My thanks also go to our teachers, school staff, families and guardians, whose support has been vital in enabling our young people to succeed and achieve the grades to continue on in their educational journey.”
