With these grades I feel I can do anything!”

Mark Anderson, head teacher, said: “I am so happy for the students. None of this would have happened without the hard work and dedication of the students themselves, combined with the unstinting support they’ve had from their teachers and parents. I am proud of each and every student.”

Mr Anderson added, “Though the changes to this year’s GCSE exam mean results cannot be compared with those of previous years, I am delighted how staff and students have responded to the demands of these more challengin­g GCSEs. Once again it looks as though our students will have made significan­tly better progress than students nationally.”
