Post Results Services

If you think your result/grade is wrong or close to the next grade, please speak to the subject teacher as soon as possible.  They will be able to advise you on the process for making a formal enquiry to have a review of the marking by the awarding body.  This enquiry must be done through school and not individually. The deadline for submission of a review is 24th September 2026. 

Click on the link for guidance if you are not happy with your results: JCQ-Post-Results-Services-2025.pdf

Please note that, if after a review of the marking, your result is downgraded, then the new result will be your grade and NOT the original higher grade. 

You must sign a consent form to have a review of the marking and there is a fee. If your grade is changed then you will be reimbursed the fee.

The consent form and post results services fees can be accessed here:

𝐂𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟔.
 
We are beyond delighted and immensely proud to celebrate the outstanding achievements of our Class of 2026, who have secured our best set of GCSE examination results in the history of Sir Thomas Boteler Church of England High School.
 
This is a truly exceptional achievement and one that reflects not only the academic success of our young people, but also their resilience, determination, character and unwavering commitment to their goals. Every single member of our Year 11 cohort should feel enormously proud of what they have accomplished.
 
Our students have achieved personal and academic milestones, overcome challenges and taken another significant step towards their future dreams and ambitions. They leave us knowing that they possess something far more valuable than a set of examination grades: the confidence, knowledge, skills and determination to shape their own futures and achieve whatever they aspire to achieve.

The Class of 2026 has performed exceptionally well and their efforts have paid off. Behind every grade is a story of hard work, perseverance and personal growth, and we are incredibly proud of every one of those stories.
 
These results represent a remarkable continuation of our school’s consistent positive trajectory, with outcomes improving year on year in the overwhelming majority of subjects. The progress we have made is a powerful testament to the relentless focus, dedication and professionalism of our staff, alongside the extraordinary commitment of our young people.
 
The improvements we have made in teaching and learning over recent years are now clearly reflected in what our students are achieving. However, while systems, strategies and high-quality teaching provide the foundations for success, it is our young people themselves who have made this achievement possible and they need all the credit.
 
Throughout the year, our Year 11 students demonstrated an inspirational level of determination, maturity and resilience. They challenged themselves, supported one another, responded to setbacks and continued to move forward when things became difficult. They never gave up.
And that is something worth celebrating far beyond examination results.
 
𝐒𝐮𝐜𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐋𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐬 𝐃𝐢𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐄𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐨𝐧𝐞
 
While there have been many outstanding academic performances, we firmly believe that success is personal.
 
For some students, success means achieving exceptional grades. For others, it means exceeding their own expectations, overcoming a particular challenge, securing the next step on their chosen pathway or simply knowing that they gave everything they could.
