Students celebrated success across a range of subjects on GCSE Results Day.

Students and staff are celebrating another good year of GCSE results. With some excellent results across a range of subjects, students have been justifiably rewarded for their hard work.

Those following arts-based subjects, including Fine Art, Photography, Media, Expressive Arts and Drama have achieved superb results with 100% of students achieving A* to C grades in Photography and over 90% of students achieving A* to C in other subjects. Excellent performance has also been sustained in a range of vocational subjects including Business, Health & Social Care, Media, Music, Travel and Tourism and Sports Studies.

Improved results in Mathematics are complemented by an increased number of students achieving GCSE Statistics (100% A* to C) and GCSE Further Mathematics (100% A* to C). Overall, 7% of students have achieved 5 or more A*/A grades, 53% of students have achieved 5+ A* to C and 22% of students have achieved an impressive 10 or more A* to C grades. This is a reflection of the hard work of students and teachers.

Some of our highest achieving students include Holly H, Emma B, Bethany H, Thomas M and twin sisters, Niamh and Emelia E, who have both achieved more than 10 A*/A grades, demonstrating the power of sibling rivalry!

We would like to pay tribute to the hard work of our students and to the parents who have supported them and the Academy for many years.
