Results & Performance

GCSE EXAM PERFORMANCE 2017-2019

St Alban’s seeks to give all our students the means to achieve in life and do well. As a non-selective Catholic High School, catering for the whole ability range, St Alban’s has set demanding targets for itself. Achieving these targets for all students across the ability range has been the highest priority in recent years and trends of results will vary slightly because of the nature of the intake of our students. We also celebrate the high numbers of students and staying on in our sixth form or other forms of education or going into employment. Please note 2020 and 2021 results for students were centre assessed grades (CAGs) and teacher assessed grades (TAGs) respectively. The information below is not for our most recent cohorts as they were affected by the cancellation of examinations due to the pandemic.
