Ten students achieved more than nine GCSEs at A* and A grades this year, with 57 per cent of pupils receiving five A*-C grades, including maths and English.
Overall, 70 per cent achieved five A*-C grades.
Annabel Hancock, Abigail Sudol, Laura Turner, Flossie Howe, Zack Ayliffe, Lorna Clarke, Elliott Boll, Jessica Paul and Erin Silvester passed all their GCSEs at the top grades.

In the BTEC exams, 40 per cent of grades were equivalent to A*-A marks.
Chair of governors, Sally-Ann Hancock paid tribute to the students and staff who have helped them achieve such good results.
