🎉 GCSE Results Day 2026 🎉
Congratulations to all of our Year 11 students collecting their GCSE results today.
This cohort has travelled a unique path, with a disrupted end to primary school and the start of their secondary education taking place during the challenges of Covid. Today marks an important milestone as they receive the grades they have worked hard to achieve and look ahead to exciting next steps in Sixth Form, college, apprenticeships and employment.
Headteacher Sally Wilmot said:
"I genuinely love results day. Seeing students open their results, celebrate with friends and families, and start getting excited about what comes next is such a privilege. We are incredibly proud of this year group and the young people they have become. Today's results reflect years of effort and commitment, and we wish them every success as they take their next steps."
Well done, Year 11. We are proud of you all and look forward to seeing what the future holds for you. 🌟

Student Story: Accessing more subject choices through Open6
Before Open6, some subjects simply weren't available at every Sixth Form.
Hear how Open6 enabled one student to study Further Maths while remaining at the Sixth Form they already knew and felt supported at.
Discover how Open6 creates more opportunities without compromising support and community.

Today marked an important milestone for our Year 13 students as they collected their A Level and Level 3 BTEC results and prepared for the exciting journeys ahead. 🎉
Whether progressing to university, apprenticeships, employment, specialist training or a gap year, each destination represents years of hard work, determination and personal growth.
Headteacher Sally Wilmot said:
"Results Day is always one of my favourite days of the school year because it is about people, not just grades. Behind every set of results is a story of hard work, resilience and ambition. We have seen these young people grow into confident, capable young adults, and we could not be prouder of all they have achieved."
At Marches Sixth Form, we are proud to be a close-knit community where students are known, supported and encouraged to pursue their ambitions. As the Class of 2026 moves onto its next chapter, we celebrate not only their qualifications, but also the friendships, experiences and confidence they take with them.
Congratulations to all our students. We can't wait to see what you do next. 💙🎓
