GCSE EXAMS 2008
Success in public examinations has always been of great importance
to us and our parents. Cams Hill has an excellent record
in this respect and the tradition has been maintained
during the transition to the National Curriculum. We
expect high standards and a high level of motivation.
Almost
all our pupils are entered for a full range of GCSE examinations
and we expect parents to support us in encouraging this
level of commitment. Pupils are normally entered for the
examination in Year 11. Some pupils are entered in Year
10.
We
value every pupil‘s individual success, regardless
of grade and we applaud the pupil who achieves the best
he or she can. The less academically able pupil who leaves
with seven or eight GCSE grades, which pay testimony to
great personal effort, is as successful as the talented
academic who achieves deserved top grades. The current
examination results table are as below:
