Headteacher, Mr Bridson, said: "Our students have once again achieved some amazing results and thoroughly deserve their success.

"The majority of subjects are still graded this year as A*-C and in these subjects 70% of all grades were A*-C with 20% A*/A and an amazing 99% pass rate overall.

"This year saw the introduction of the new 1-9 grading system for English and maths which means it isn’t possible to make any direct comparison with previous years but we are very pleased with 63% of the grades being four or above which is described by the Government as a new pass."
