Marks in English literature and religious education for two students rank in the top five of the national figures.
Students achieving five or more A* - C grades were up to 67 per cent – two per cent higher than last year.
Pupils gaining five A* to G grades were at 91 per cent – down one per cent on last year and, overall, 98 per cent of students left with at least one GCSE.
Head teacher Eddie De Middelaer said: "The pupils have worked really hard.
"Compared to last year, we would have thought this was a weaker year group, academically, but they have outstripped them.
"This is because of extra course catch-up and mentoring by teachers."
Matthew Moore (16) of Burbage gained one of the top five marks in English literature in the country.
Matthew, who would like to go to Cambridge University, said: "I feel elated.
"I was going to do maths and further maths, physics and chemistry but with these grades I might change to English literature."
Martial artist and fencer Matthew also gained an A in AS-level systems and controls and a B in AS economics, which he took in addition to his GCSE's.
Vartan Tamizian (16), of Whetstone, who got an A* in RE, and achieved one of the highest percentage passes in the subject in the country.
He said: "I really enjoyed it because of the topics and discussions."
Wincey Tang (16) of Broughton Astley was thrilled to get eight A*s and two As.
She is planning to do A-levels in textiles, maths, English language and IT and already has a fashion journalism career in mind.
Christian Green (16), of Lutterworth was slightly disappointed not to get the grade he hoped for in drama but he got As in English and IT.
Most pupils said it was a massive relief to finally get their results.
Alexandra Sampson, (16) from Lutterworth said: "Waiting for my results has been really painful and I have been really nervous.
"However, it was worth it as I am really pleased with them.
"I found physics, French and art the hardest but I'm pleased with the end result, especially in art."
