Congratulations to every one of our Year 11 students on their fantastic achievements. We are immensely proud of all they have accomplished. Their hard work, determination and resilience have been rewarded with an excellent set of results.

More than one-third (35%) of all grades were grades 9-7 (equivalent to the previous A* and A grades). Almost two-thirds (65%) of all grades were grades 9-6 (equivalent to the previous A*-B grades).

Particular congratulations go to students studying Creative and Performing Art subjects, who achieved outstanding results:

Music – 100% grade 9

Fine Art – 100% grades 9-7

Textiles – 100% grades 9-7

More importantly, we are delighted to see our students progressing to a wide range of exciting destinations, including independent schools, selective grammar schools and sixth form colleges, reflecting their ambitions, interests and aspirations. 

Head, Sophie Bradshaw, said: “I am incredibly proud of every one of our Year 11 students. As our very first GCSE cohort, they have helped shape our Senior School and set a wonderful standard for those who will follow. Their results are a reflection not only of their hard work and determination, but also of the exceptional support they have received from our dedicated teachers. As a non-selective school, these results are particularly impressive and are testament to what can be achieved when pupils are given the right support, encouragement and opportunities to thrive. We congratulate every pupil and wish them every success as they embark on the next stage of their education.”

Head of Senior, Sheila Butler, said: “These results demonstrate the fantastic work and efforts of our pioneering Year 11 community. At Dulwich, we pride ourselves on providing personalised learning, tailored to our students’ individual flight paths. I’m delighted by the first set of GCSE results for the school.”

In the Pre-Prep years, we make learning fun by igniting children’s natural curiosity, encouraging them to take risks, and supporting them to master fundamental skills.

Thank you to our wonderful pupils, dedicated staff, and supportive families who make Dulwich such a special place. We are incredibly proud of this commendation.

A huge thank you to our pupils, parents and staff for your ongoing support of our wonderful school.

As part of the celebrations, Little Stream pupils were delighted to be visited by Jasmine the Listening Dog. Prep pupils enjoyed the ever-popular Masked Reader Assembly, trying to guess which members of staff were hidden behind the stories being read. Year 6 pupils also visited Little Stream to share some of their favourite books with the younger children, making it a lovely opportunity to celebrate reading together.

Senior pupils joined in the fun too, with the chance to dress up their form teacher in an outfit of their choice or decorate their form door with a book-themed design.

What a fantastic day celebrating the joy of reading – enjoyed by pupils and staff alike!

Talk Education take into account everything from the quantifiable (results, facilities, destinations and more) to the unquantifiables like word-of-mouth reputation. Not many schools in Kent made the cut, so we are giving ourselves a well-deserved pat on the back! A huge thank you to our pupils, parents and staff for everything you do to make our school community so special.

Located next to our existing Prep facilities, this new building will feature six additional classrooms and is set to be ready by September 2026. This development will bring all Prep pupils – from Fledglings to Year 6 – closer together, creating a more connected and cohesive Prep experience.

Whilst our Upper Prep and Senior pupils will continue to successfully share the same space for the rest of this academic year, this development will help us provide an environment that is better suited to the differing needs of both groups in the long term.

With building and design teams now on site, construction will begin in just a few weeks – watch this space!

The children asked an impressively challenging range of questions – from local traffic concerns, to national issues such as sugar in cereals and NHS waiting times, and on to global politics. Well done to all involved for such thoughtful and engaged discussion.

What a spectacular event it was, featuring incredible performances delivered with impressive skill and precision! Well done to all the pupils who performed and a big thank you to Mrs Carter and team for organising!

Thank you to all the staff and parents from schools across the South East who came to listen and contribute to a positive and valuable discussion.

In Nash House, our Nursery and Reception children sang and signed some lovely songs! Little Stream brought the spirit of autumn to their Harvest Festival assembly with joyful songs and poems about conkers, apples, and kindness. Meanwhile, Year 5 lifted everyone’s spirits in the Upper Prep and Senior School with a cheerful song celebrating all the food they are grateful for, which was enjoyed by all.

The wonderful display of everyone’s donations was truly heartwarming. All contributions went to the Trussell Trust’s food bank in Hawkhurst and our donation was the largest they received this year! Thank you to everyone who donated, and well done to the Little Stream School Council for helping load the van.
