Some 47% of students gained 5 or more in English and Maths and more than 13% gained a 7+. These are an improvement on last year’s results.
Science results at the school continue to excel with 60% of students achieving a grade 5 or higher and more than 23% achieving a grade 7 in GCSE Science.
Meanwhile, 29% of students took Triple Science as we look to produce the scientists of the future.
Our school was particularly pleased with this Triple Science cohort that over 64% achieved a grade 7 and over 35% of students achieved a grade 9 in Triple Science.
