Derbyshire students celebrate GCSE success

Derbyshire pupils’ GCSE results have improved this year, figures reveal today.

More than 8,000 students across the county’s 45 secondary schools received their GCSE results, with many outstanding stories from both schools and individual students.

Provisional results show that 55% of students in Derbyshire achieved five or more GCSEs at grades A* to C including English and maths − an increase of 3% from last year.

Deputy cabinet member for children and young people, Councillor Caitlin Bisknell said:

"I’m delighted that early indications show that our GCSE students have done better again this year.

"GCSEs are an important stepping stone for the future, whatever route our young people choose to follow! Whether vocational or academic.

"I send my heartfelt congratulations to all students and teachers for their hard work - and to parents and county council staff for supporting our young people in achieving their success."
