GCSE Examination Results

The Chalfonts Community College continues to strive to increase our GCSE grades. On Thursday, 22 August 2024, our Year 11 students celebrated another wonderful set of results. The Chalfonts Community College strives to improve our academic, vocational and technical offerings and attainment, and we aim to ensure that all students are as well-prepared as possible for their GCSE Examinations. The breadth of success in our traditional academic, vocational, or technical subjects makes this an inclusive school. We wish all the best to our students as they move to the next chapter of their lives.
