Kirsty Mackenzie, Head, said: “Our Year 11 students have secured remarkable GCSE results today and we are exceptionally proud of their achievements.
“It is incredible to see our students achieving at the highest level in an impressively broad range of subjects. This cohort has been stretched and challenged across subjects not usually offered in other schools, including Further Mathematics, Astronomy, Latin and even Classical Greek. They have worked hard to demonstrate their talents, and have given themselves a flying start to their further education studies.
“Whilst we place huge importance on examination results, they do paint only part of the picture of our wonderful Year 11 pupils. This cohort includes national finalists in public speaking competitions, gifted sportspeople, talented musicians, global citizens with astute social awareness, Duke of Edinburgh award holders, budding entrepreneurs and much more. We are proud to create an environment where students succeed in all aspects of their well-rounded education.”
