🎉 **Congratulations to the Aylesford School Class of 2026!**

We’re celebrating another year of improved GCSE results, with overall attainment rising for the second consecutive year and strong progress across a range of subjects.

We’re particularly pleased to see significant improvement in outcomes for students with special educational needs, alongside more students achieving strong passes across five or more subjects, including English and Mathematics.

A huge well done to all our students for their hard work, determination and resilience, and thank you to our staff, parents and families for the support they have given throughout the year.

Many students will now continue their journey with us in our growing Sixth Form, where we still have a limited number of places available for September.
