Our GCSE exam results for 2023 can be viewed below.
Congratulations to all our Year 11 students – who have been a terrific cohort and have risen to the challenges facing them through Covid. They have shown such resilience and resourcefulness and have worked so hard during this time. They should be rightfully proud of their GCSE results.
Additionally, we should also pay tribute to the commitment of both the staff team, our parent body and governing body, without whose support these results could not have been achieved.
We wish all our students the very best for the future and know that if they have risen to the challenges of the last two years, they will be able to deal with any further challenges they may face in the future.
