The school’s head Mrs Michelle Anderson. “We are so proud of our Year 13 students who have worked tremendously hard on their sixth form studies over the last two years and achieved some of the best examination results the School has seen.
“There were 356 qualifications taken and their results are testament to their commitment and hard work alongside the support of their parents and carers and the dedication of our experienced staff.
Our students are all progressing on to a number of new opportunities including work, apprenticeships, gap years and for the majority, university.
“We wish all our students the very best of luck and every success in the future. We would like to thank them for helping to make the High School the special place that it is.”
