“A huge congratulations to our pupils who have achieved their GCSE grades today. Their continued dedication to learning has been second-to-none and we are so pleased to see them rejoicing in their grades.

He continued: “Many thanks to our parents, staff and community for your ongoing support during the pandemic and we look forward to seeing our pupils take their next steps as they go on to further education and work towards their bright futures.”
