Caroline Longhurst, Headteacher said:
"We are immensely proud of all the achievements of our Year 13 students this year. It was a pleasure to see them in school to collect their results, share in their excitement and for them to tell us their future plans. They have worked extremely hard, especially given the challenging circumstances of the past year or so.
It is fantastic to know that they all have next steps in place in terms of their education or employment with many of them going on to study at university, including our partner institutions. We wish them all well for the future and look forward to seeing what they will achieve.
My thanks to our staff who have worked tirelessly to ensure students are all able to progress onto their chosen pathways and to parents for all their support."
