“During the last 18 months, they have had to endure extended periods of remote learning during two lockdowns, uncertainty about whether their exams would take place and all of the normal challenges associated with preparing for their exams.

“Despite this, they have continued to give their best and have maintained a positive mindset throughout.

Students of all abilities achieved exceptionally well and once again we have seen a record number of students achieving the highest Grades of 7, 8 and 9s, equivalent to A* and As on the previous scale.”
