Exam Results
With an incredible 73% of pupils achieving A*-C grades in the GCSE exams, we have managed to improve our pass success rate for the 8th consecutive year - one of only a handful of schools in the country to have done so! We are incredibly proud of all of our departments for their hard work in helping us to do so.
This pass rate becomes 62% when including English and Maths - another marvellous achievement. Our average point score is an amazing 490.
We also had a record 200 A* grades, which is a phenomenal amount (11 of which were achieved by one student alone)!
