Students achieved highly in Biology (100% 5-9), Chemistry (98.3% 5-9), Physics (100% 5-9), Geography (83.2% 5-9) and Further Maths (100% 5-9). There was also very strong performance in Religious Education, Drama, Media Studies, Textiles, History and PE.  Students have had great success in Health and Social Care and Sports Science (47% achieving a Level 2 Distinction/Distinction*).

There are so many exceptional results and students should be very proud of what they have achieved, especially in the context of the breadth and depth of the curriculum offer they have studied. We are also very proud of the way that students have committed themselves to the wider life of the school.’ These results give our students a firm foundation to progress onto further study. We wish all our students the very best for the future and look forward to welcoming many of them back into our Sixth Form. Well done.
