Headteacher Mark Rodaway commented: “I am delighted with these results, which are testimony to the hard work and effort of our students, their parents and all the staff at the school. In 2009 OFSTED highlighted that we were a rapidly improving school. Since 2006 we have improved our headline figure of 5A*-C with English and Mathematics by over 23%. We focus on preparing our students for future employability ensuring that virtually every student leaves the school with a qualification in literacy and numeracy. Over 97% of our students gained 5 GCSE’s A*-G.”
