GCSE Exam Results 2026

Exceptional Progress. Remarkable Young People. Outstanding Futures. 

We are celebrating the achievements of the Class of 2026, a year group whose determination, resilience and ambition have been rewarded with excellent GCSE outcomes and whose contribution to Cranford has extended far beyond the classroom. 

Cranford Students Celebrate Outstanding GCSE Success

More Than Results 

Results Day is always one of the most joyful mornings in the Cranford calendar. 

This year's Year 11 cohort returned to school to celebrate, not only excellent examination outcomes but also years of personal growth, friendship, leadership and achievement. Whether through academic success, sport, music, drama, outdoor education, service, or the countless everyday moments that define school life, these young people have made an exceptional contribution to our school community. 

The greatest measure of success is not simply where a pupil finishes, but how far they have travelled. The Class of 2026 have demonstrated remarkable determination, character and resilience throughout their time at Cranford, and I am enormously proud of everything they have achieved. Their excellent outcomes are the result of years of hard work, supported by outstanding teachers and families who have encouraged them every step of the way. Above all, they leave us as exceptional young people with exciting futures ahead of them.

Headmaster, Dr James Raymond

Meet the Class of 2026 

At Cranford we believe that examination success should always be seen within the wider context of a child's journey. Every pupil arrives with different strengths, aspirations and starting points, and our aim is to help each individual become the very best version of themselves. 

These results follow an exceptional set of A-level results this year with 100% of graduating students heading off to their chosen university underline their impressive dedication to their studies and the Sixth Form teaching team who have supported the students in achieving these impressive results.
