Jersey students collected their GCSE results this morning – with an overall pass rate of 76.3% in the island beating the 67.4% reported in England.

A total of 9,321 exam results were received by young islanders this morning.

Of these, 24.4% were awarded at the highest grades 7 to 9 – which is the equivalent of an A* or A grade. In England, 21.8% were graded at 7-9.

Comparisons between Jersey and England should be treated with caution as percentages derived from smaller sample sizes are much more sensitive to minor variations, whereas national results are drawn from a considerably more robust dataset.

Education Minister Rob Ward said: “I want to congratulate all those receiving their GCSE, Level 1, and Level 2 qualification results today.

“This is an important milestone for you, and I want to recognise the effort, determination, and commitment you’ve shown to get to this point.

“I’d also like to thank teachers, support staff, parents, and carers, who all play a very important role in your journey.

“Whatever you choose to do next, I wish you the very best of luck and encourage you to seize the opportunities you are presented with.”
