“We are incredibly proud of all our Year 11 students. Their resilience and commitment to their studies, and their embodiment of our school values, has been inspiring particularly over the last year. Whilst many students have achieved Grade 7s and above, some of the notable successes are amongst the students who have faced challenges, yet despite these, they have persevered to secure good GCSE passes and should be congratulated. We hope that all students have been set up with the vital foundations for future success”. Lucy Macdonald - Headteacher
“What a fantastic morning celebrating the students’ excellent GCSE results. It was so lovely to share in their special morning, and celebrate with them after all their revision and hard work. We are delighted that so many are enrolling to study A levels here, and we wish all students moving to a different provider all the best in the future and hope they stay in touch with the school. ”

We would also like to acknowledge and thank the exceptional commitment the staff body have given to this year group over the last five years, and especially last year.

We would also like to thank parents and carers for your unwavering support – it really has been a team effort.
Congratulations to our Year 11 students on such GCSE brilliant results; you really have made the whole school community proud!
