Our amazing year 11 students collected their GCSE results on Thursday 21^st August, and it was wonderful to share their successes with them. The hard work and dedication of students and staff at Stewards in 2024-2025 has led to dramatic improvements in GCSE results across the full range of subjects. Crucially, results in English and Maths saw big increases leading to many more students achieving strong grades.

Although the statistics on school outcomes across England will not be published by the Department for Education until the autumn, based on historic performance data measuring school improvement over the last decade, we expect to find that Stewards are towards the top of the list of most improved schools in Essex, and indeed across the country as a whole. We are delighted to see our young people achieve such great success and are very proud of our teachers for the quality of teaching they have brought to Stewards this year.

It is great to be a school community which is so clearly on the up!
