Exam Results
As a successful and rapidly growing school, we are delighted our students have performed so well, building on the successes achieved last year to secure further improvements across Key Stage 4 and Key Stage 5 in the three years since 2023, at the same time as student numbers continue to rise.
We are always proud of the results our students achieve, and even more so of their contributions to our community. Our students have been a vibrant part of school life, leading and taking integral roles in school drama productions, sports festivals, music concerts, and art exhibitions. They have acted as peer mentors to support younger students learn, driven change through school council meetings, and raised thousands of pounds for charity. They are ambassadors embodying the school values of Hard Work, Respect and Progress.
Year 11
We are pleased to report that this year’s cohort has achieved remarkable success at whole school and subject levels, which translate into incredible student success. Whilst it is a challenge to include all of these success stories, below are three areas that particularly stand out.
- The best GCSE results that students have achieved, at all levels, since the school joined Activate Learning Trust (ALET) in 2018. Results at all thresholds are at their strongest point and have increased significantly in the last seven years.
- 40% of all students achieved GCSE results at grade 7 or better, with the average grade achieved by students also at its highest level since joining ALET.
- Science results, which have been an area of focus for the school, exceed national pass rates at both strong and standard levels. Furthermore, results at grade 7 or better, have doubled over the last three years.
- Both English Language and Maths achieved pass rates exceeding national average
Year 13
Our dynamic and growing Sixth Form continues to go from strength to strength. Overall, the results for the cohort reflect sustained whole school improvements, with students making better progress compared to national average. Two thirds of grades were A*- C.
Top achievers

Apprenticeship success
In addition to those progressing to university, a number of students have secured sought-after apprenticeship placements, including:
