Pegasus School 20th August 2026
Students at Forest High School celebrated their GCSE results today. Cementing the school’s improvement journey over the last four years.
Forest High School has seen remarkable growth in higher-grade attainment, with the number of students achieving Grades 9-7 in Science nearly tripling compared to last year, while Maths 9-7 results have almost doubled. Overall, the number of Grade 7s and above awarded in English, Maths and Science has quintupled compared to 2025.
Evelyn, winner of the school’s Maria Simpson Award earlier this year, achieved three Grade 9s and a Grade 8, along with grades 9-8 in Science. Evelyn commented ‘I have really enjoyed
my time at Forest High as I like learning and appreciated the wide variety of opportunities that the school provided over the last five years. I am particularly pleased with the Geography (Grade 9) as this is one of the subjects I am doing next year’. Evelyn is off to study A-levels at Dene Magna Sixth Form.
Zoe achieved a Grade 9 in Art along with high grades in Science and Maths and is also off to Dene Magna Sixth Form. She was pleased that the hard work has paid off and is excited for
the journey ahead. Zoe commented that she would like to thank the teachers for all of their support over the years.
Annabelle achieved a raft of excellent GCSEs with all of her results at Grade 7 and above.
She commented she was very pleased with the results and is off to do A-levels at Dene Magna Sixth Form.
Another student off to Dene Magna is Josh. Josh was very happy with his results, particularly the Grade 8 in English Language and is now hoping to change his original pick of A-levels to
include English.
Katy achieved two 9-8 grades in Science along with a Grade 8 in Art and is off to do A-levels in Product Design, History and either Art or Physics at John Kyrle. With such high grades in
Science and Art this will no doubt be a tough one to pick.
Emily will be joining Katy at John Kyrle having got a range of very high grades including an 8-8 for Science.
The school is particularly proud of the progress made by students with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND). The percentage of SEND students achieving Grade 9-4 in
Maths has nearly doubled from last year, reflecting the school’s inclusive approach and targeted support strategies.
Vocational subjects have also continued to thrive. Sport Studies students achieved exceptional results, with 62.5% achieving a Level 2 Distinction (equivalent to a Grade 7) and
100% achieving their Level 2 pass (Grade 4 equivalent), maintaining a strong track record in
this area.
