On average, GCSE students at the college have made greater progress across a wide range of academic subjects, compared to similar students elsewhere.
Ten grade 9s are being celebrated by Henry, including an A in additional maths.
Luca was awarded seven grade 9s, with Kira and Ella both earning six grade 9s.
Sophia, Ben, Aubrey and Eloise were all honoured with five grade 9s.
These results follow last week’s record-breaking A Level results, which saw 80 per cent of results graded A*-B, with 97 per cent, A*-C - the best performance within these grade boundaries in school history.
Headmaster Adam Williams said: "We are thrilled with this year’s results at LWC.
"Our approach values more than grades, but also character, resilience, determination and grit."
"These results are proof that this approach works and shapes not only academically strong young people, but those who are confident, purposeful and ready to make a difference in the world."
Along with a strong set of both A Level and GCSE results this year, LWC has also been shortlisted for Co-ed Independent School of the Year in the Independent Schools of the Year Awards.
The college will also open phase one of its £2.5m Sport, Fitness, Health and Adventure Centre next month, along with a new learning space for its much-expanded Special Educational Needs (SEN) and Inclusion Team.
Mr Williams continued: "We’re also incredibly excited to be joining forces with St Neot’s Preparatory School from September, in a merger which follows our formal collaboration, in place since 2021.
"The Lord Wandsworth Family of Schools is a strong one, offering parents the option of a continuous educational pathway from two through to 18 years.”
