GCSE Results 2026: St Thomas Becket Catholic School celebrates ‘best ever’ GCSE results

Today is your day. ✨

To our incredible Year 11 students collecting your GCSE results at St Thomas Becket Catholic School – good luck! Whatever happens when you open that envelope, remember just how far you've come.

These results are the product of years of hard work, resilience, late-night revision, early mornings and never giving up. But they don't define who you are or what you're capable of.

Some of you will be joining our Sixth Form, others will be heading to college, apprenticeships or exciting new opportunities. Every journey is different, and every success story starts somewhere.

So take a deep breath, celebrate your achievements, be proud of yourself and embrace whatever comes next. The future is full of possibilities, and this is just the beginning.

You've got this. 💙

Congratulations, Class of 2026 – we can't wait to see where your next chapter takes you.

What an incredible summer term it has been! We have now come to the end of another successful academic year, this edition celebrates the many achievements, memorable experiences and opportunities that have made this term so special.

This year has been particularly significant as we celebrated the 50th anniversary of St Thomas Becket Catholic School. Our Golden Jubilee has given us the opportunity to reflect with gratitude on five decades of faith, learning, and service, while also looking ahead with great confidence and hope.

It has been wonderful to celebrate this milestone alongside current students, staff, governors, alumni, parents and the wider community, all of whom have played a part in shaping the rich story of our school.

🎨 Transition Day Artwork 🎨

We wanted to share some of the beautiful artwork created by our new Year 7 students who will be joining us this September.

As part of their Transition Days this week, they explored the fascinating world of Aboriginal art and designed their own colourful boomerang cards to take home. The creativity, effort and imagination on display were fantastic, and we can't wait to see what they'll achieve when they join us in September!

Well done to everyone who took part – we look forward to welcoming you back soon! 🌟
