MALVERN St James Girls’ School recorded another year of ‘outstanding’ GCSE results with all students receiving a 100 per cent pass rate.

This is the first full year of results at MSJ reflecting the new reformed I/GCSEs.

Out of the cohort, 96.1 per cent of girls achieved grades 9-4.

This year, ten girls achieved eight or more 9-8 grades in their I/GCSEs, whilst three girls received a clean sweep of 9 grades.




Twins Hattie and Kay Baxter have between them achieved nineteen 9 grades.

Genevieve Manning also achieved a clean sweep of 9 grades.


At MSJ, 24.4 per cent of all entries were graded at 9, 39.7 per cent were graded at 9 and 8 combined while 59.2 per cent of entries graded 9-7.

Headmistress Olivera Raraty said: “I am extremely proud of all the girls who have all worked so hard to achieve these fantastic results with many individual personal successes, as not all students find examinations easy.

“With the new reforms, the GCSEs are now very much harder so I am absolutely delighted.”
