Headmaster Christopher Wolsey said:
“I offer my warmest congratulations to our brilliant pupils – and behind them, to our outstanding teachers and, indeed, our parents too – for such an encouraging round of GCSE results. They reflect many years of really diligent application and it’s wonderful to see so many exemplary performances. Each and every grade was hard won and, with them, our pupils can go into the Sixth Form full of confidence for their future. We’re excited to continue our work with them”.
