Headteacher Stephanie Quayle said “We are delighted that our students have almost all met their personal A-level targets and gained their university places. These results are even better than our record results in 2010.

“Our students deserve these excellent results. They have worked extremely hard and had great support from their teachers and families.

“I am especially pleased for Aimi Bisco who joined us as head of sixth form last September. She has been instrumental in helping our students achieve these great results.”
