- Pupils celebrating their well deserved results
We are delighted to announce another excellent year for exam results.
85% of all pupils achieved 5 or more high grades (A*-C). 78% of pupils achieved 5 or more high grades including Functional English and Mathematics. 38% of all grades were A or A*. Once again progress between Key Stage 2 (end of primary school) and Key Stage 4 in the core subjects was particularly pleasing.
Mr Nicholson Headteacher said “We are thrilled with the examination results this year. They reflect an enormous amount of hard work, dedication and commitment on behalf of both our pupils and staff. I would like to take this opportunity to wish all our leavers this year the very best of success in the next chapter of their lives”.
Exam results for this year once again place us amongst the top schools in the country. Well done everyone!
