Damian Addison, Deputy Head Teacher said:
“We are incredibly proud of our talented and hard -working students and of our dedicated staff who have worked tirelessly to support them. Once again we see an exceptional set of results from a year group who have overcome the disruption earlier in their education due to Covid and have excelled in their final exams. In a year where national results have returned to 2019 standards, we are delighted to see an increase with over half of A level grades now at B or above and a quarter reaching the highest grades, and our record of 100% passes in both academic and vocational courses sustained”
