­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­This year Highbury Fields School is celebrating some of our best ever examination results with 56% of our students gaining 5A* to C grades at GCSE. A number of students have achieved only A* and A grades and many others have gained grades which have exceeded expectations. Noorie Jalil achieved 8 A* and 4 A grades while Alice Spencer gained 7A* and 3 A grades. These are examples of outstanding performance. The school is especially proud of the results from the Art, French, ICT, Music and Textiles GCSE courses.

 Students collecting their results today are well placed to take their next steps in education moving onto A level or vocational courses. Many of our students will be enrolling, today, onto sixth form courses offered by the Islington Consortium formed by Highbury Fields School , Highbury Grove and Central Foundation School for Boys.
