GCSE Results 2026

Oratory pupils have achieved another good year of GCSE results, with a value-added performance that places the school in the top 10% of schools nationally.

Matthew Fogg, Head Master, says “We've just finished a wonderful morning here at The Oratory School celebrating some incredible GCSE results with our pupils, their families and our teachers. This year’s results incredibly place us in the top 10% of schools for value-added and amazingly, grades nine to four are over 20% above the national average. Both of those statistics are a real credit to all of the hard work put in by the pupils, the support from their parents, and the efforts made by our teaching staff. Well done everyone, we can't wait to start their A Level journey this September.”
