RESULTS - STATUTORY OUTCOMES REPORT

Pupils at St Osmund’s continue to achieve highly across all national assessments in 2026. These results reflect the school’s high expectations, strong teaching and the children’s determination to do their very best. 


Our success is rooted in our belief in developing the whole child. Guided by our school ethos and the Gospel of John 10:10, 'I have come that you may have life, and life in all its fullness,' we place the dignity of each person at the heart of everything we do. The spiritual, social, emotional and cultural formation of every pupil is the foundation on which their academic achievement is built.

Our children flourish because their learning grows from this fullness of life.
