Principal Jason Wing, who is retiring from the position this summer, said: “These results reflect the hard work that students have undertaken and we are thrilled with the outcomes for our students.

“We spent a great deal of time preparing and examining our teacher predictions prior to submission to the exam board to ensure that they reflected the students hard work and attainment over the past two years. Our staff know their students well and we are confident that our centre assessed grades are accurate.

“We had already made the decision last week to base admissions into our sixth form on centre assessed grades as opposed to the grades received from the exam boards, and we are looking forward to having record numbers of students embarking on Post-16 qualifications.

“I would like to congratulate all of our Year 11 students and wish them all the best of luck as they continue on their educational journey. We have seen many individual successes at GCSE level and we are awaiting confirmation of final BTEC results which we anticipate will undoubtably enhance these already incredible achievements.”

Neale-Wade Academy is part of The Active Learning Trust, and CEO Stephen Chamberlain added: “I am proud to congratulate all students at Neale-Wade Academy who have received their well-earned results today. The last few months have been unpredictable and highly challenging, and I know that all our teachers and parents could not be prouder of the achievements of our students this year in the face of such difficult circumstances.”
