They are currently working very hard in their French lessons and demonstrating a real passion for languages. This is great to see. Our GCSE results this summer were outstanding – **87% of our students achieved a grade 4 or above, and 35% achieved a grade 7 and above**. Also on average our students achieved **0.58** of a grade higher that expectation – this is well above average nationally. We are very optimistic that we can better these results when your child completes their GCSE in 2024! Thank you for your continued support Best wishes Ms C Mazabraud **Head of Modern Languages** **![](https://bishop-challoner-catholic-college.schudio.com/images/news/Bottom_Letterhead_22.jpg)** [ World Peace School Sports Day](https://bishop-challoner-catholic-college.schudio.com/news/2022-09-21-world-peace-school-sports-day) [Drayton Manor - Pick Up ](https://bishop-challoner-catholic-college.schudio.com/news/2022-09-28-drayton-manor-pick-up) ### Year 7-11 - [A Warm Welcome](https://bishop-challoner-catholic-college.schudio.com/a-warm-welcome) - [Admissions & Appeals](https://bishop-challoner-catholic-college.schudio.com/information-about-our-school/admissions) - [Curriculum](https://bishop-challoner-catholic-college.schudio.com/about/curriculum) - [SEND](https://bishop-challoner-catholic-college.schudio.com/send) - [Free School Meals](https://bishop-challoner-catholic-college.schudio.com/about/free-school-meals) - [Library](https://bishop-challoner-catholic-college.schudio.com/library) - [Netbook Programme](https://bishop-challoner-catholic-college.schudio.com/about/netbook-programme) - [Instrumental Lessons](https://bishop-challoner-catholic-college.schudio.com/about/instrumental-lessons) - [Extra-Curricular](https://bishop-challoner-catholic-college.schudio.com/extra-curricular-life) - [Examination Information](https://bishop-challoner-catholic-college.schudio.com/examinations-information) - [Careers](https://bishop-challoner-catholic-college.schudio.com/about/careers) - [Uniform](https://bishop-challoner-catholic-college.schudio.com/about/uniform) - [Latest News](https://bishop-challoner-catholic-college.schudio.com/news) - [Login](https://bishop-challoner-catholic-college.schudio.com/catholic-college/login) - [Year 9 Pathways](https://bishop-challoner-catholic-college.schudio.com/about/careers/year-9-pathways) - [Parent Information](https://bishop-challoner-catholic-college.schudio.com/parent-information) ![Bishop Challoner Catholic College](https://files.schudio.com/bishop-challoner-catholic-college/images/logo/logo(6).png) ### Bishop Challoner Catholic College Institute Road Kings Heath Birmingham B14 7EG 0121 444 4161 0121 441 1552 ### Social Media - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61552167475288) - [Youtube](http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCeZYD3XtsauCowKyzMKMfuQ) - [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/company/bishop-challoner-catholic-college) - [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/bishopchallonercatholiccollege/#) © Copyright 2017–2026 Bishop Challoner Catholic College School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://bishop-challoner-catholic-college.schudio.com/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
