This year, due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the Government decided that young people’s grades would be determined by teachers, based on work students produced throughout their course. These grades were then moderated and assessed by external exam boards which awarded the final grades.

Students across the school performed well, with some of the individual standout achievements including:

Freya secured her place at the University of Cambridge to study Geography after achieving A*, A*, A in Geography, English Literature and Language and Biology, and an A in her EPQ.
