GCSE Examination Results 2025

Congratulations to all our Year 11s who collected their GCSE results in August 2025. Their hard work, determination and commitment led to some fabulous results; 25% of all our students’ results were grade 7 and above. They have achieved a fantastic set of results for Burntwood School; we are incredibly proud of all their achievements. This is despite the setbacks they had over the past few years. We welcome back all our students returning to our Sixth form, it is lovely to see so many of you back at Burntwood this term along with students who have chosen to join us from other schools.
