  • 90% of students achieve a ‘standard pass’ in GCSE English and Maths.
  • 53% of students achieve the English Baccalaureate (strong pass).  The average grade in the English Baccalaureate subjects is 5.83.

Pupils at Tauheedul Islam Boys’ High School (TIBHS)are celebrating today after receiving their GCSE results, which were awarded in recognition of their hard work throughout their courses.

GCSE exams were cancelled this year due to the coronavirus pandemic, but despite the uncertainty in the run-up to today’s results, pupils at the school still have much to celebrate.

Muhammad Sadik Patel, who achieved the top grade 9 in nine subjects, was one of a number of high-performers at the school. Muhammad reflected;

‘I’ve worked really hard for these grades over the last few years and I am so glad that my hardwork has been recognised. The teachers at my school have very high expectations and I always knew that they would help me get to the next level’.

Muhammad Sadik will go on to study A Levels in Biology, Chemistry and Maths. He hopes to secure a future in Medicine.

 

 

 

Raihaan Bhika was overjoyed after achieving the top grade 9 in seven subjects. Raihaan enthused;

‘All the teachers and support staff have helped me so much. They showed me the steps I needed to take to achieve my dreams and at each step, I was encouraged to go a little bit further. I am so grateful to everyone who has helped me to achieve these grades and for helping me to grow into the person I am today’.

Raihaan will go on to study A Levels in Maths, Physics and Computer Science, and hopes to secure a future in Engineering.

 

 

 

Yahya Mamoon also achieved the top grade 9 in seven subjects. Yahya enthused,

‘I am so pleased with my results, and although it is a bit different this year, I’ve still worked really hard throughout school and am very glad to have achieved these grades’.

Yahya is going to study A Levels in Biology, Chemistry and Maths and hopes to secure a future in Medicine.

 

 

 

 

Muhammad Idris Patel, who achieved the top grade 9 in seven subjects, was delighted with his results and reflected on his time at TIBHS. Muhammad enthused,

‘I am so grateful to everyone who has helped me to achieve these grades and for helping me to grow into the person I am today’.

The hard work and dedication shown by Tayyab Mahmood, who is Hearing Impaired, paid off as he secured an outstanding set of results. Tayyab achieved two grade 8s, one grade 7, four grade 6s and one grade 5. Tayyab reflected on his personal journey:

“If you had told me at the beginning of Year 7 that I would go on to achieve these results or to develop the confidence that I have, I would never have believed you. I’m just so grateful to all the teachers, staff and my parents and friends for helping me to grow and develop into the person I am today”.

Teyyab hopes to secure a future in Medicine.

 

 

 

Another pupil who battled health issues to complete his studies was Uzair Patel. Despite his eyesight deteriorating significantly while studying for his GCSEs, Uzair overcame the challenges to achieve three  Grade 8s, four grade 7s and one grade 6. He has worked hard to overcome the challenges he has faced academically alongside playing an instrumental role in the school’s social action project – Uniformity. Uzair is looking forward to a future in Cyber Security.

 

 

 

 

 

At the school, 81% of students achieved GCSEs with grades 9-5 in English and Maths, whilst 53% achieved the English Baccalaureate.  The average grade (points score) in the English Baccalaureate subjects was 5.83.

The English Baccalaureate recognises achievement in a range of academic and challenging subjects. It is awarded to students who achieve grades 9-5 in English, Maths, Science, a modern foreign language and History or Geography.   Nationally, around a tenth of students achieve the English Baccalaureate and the average grade in the English Baccalaureate subjects is 4.0.

Over the past few years, new tougher exams have been introduced for all GCSE subjects – assessed using a 9-1 grading system.   A grade ‘5’ or higher is considered a ‘strong pass’ whilst a grade ‘4’ is considered a ‘standard pass’.

Majid Ditta, Principal, reflected on the achievements and underlined the wider mission of the school,

‘I am extremely proud and humbled with all the efforts, commitment and hard work all of our young men demonstrated throughout their schooling. It was a shame that their education journey was cut short due to the school closures in March 2020, prematurely ending all of the key highlights, which pupils experience before they move on to college. However, I am delighted with the exceptional performance of the boys and the recognition that the results in themselves are fantastic and justifiable deserved. Thank you to the pupil, parents, staff and other stakeholders for their support and efforts to secure the grades.’

The academic achievements at the school are part of several accolades the school has received over the past few years.

The league tables also reported that, for each of the past four years, TIBHS is one of the best schools in the country for achievement by students with low prior achievement at primary school and those from disadvantaged backgrounds.

In March 2014, the school was given an ‘outstanding’ rating by Ofsted inspectors.  In their inspection report, Ofsted praised ‘exceptional progress’ and ‘outstanding leadership’ at the school.
