75% of pupils achieved grade 9-4 in English and 65% achieved grade 9-4 in Mathematics; the highest attainment on record.
Headteacher, Mr John Hankin said: “We are very proud of our pupils who have achieved excellent GCSE results. We are particularly proud of their resilience and refusal to make excuses; despite the difficulties they faced throughout the pandemic. To achieve significantly stronger results than previous cohorts who have not had to face such challenging circumstances is testament to the hard work of pupils, parents and staff. We wish them every success in the future.”
