Outstanding 2007 GCSE Results
Mrs Joan Mumby, Headmistress, said: "These results, well above the national average, represent considerable hard work by our pupils and support from teachers and parents. The ability range in the current Year 11 means that there is cause for celebration across the board, with individual pupils exceeding their expectations and all achieving the grades they need for the VIth forms of their choice.
The success of our Year 9 pupils, 12 of whom took and passed GCSE Music two years early, is particularly pleasing.
When so few pupils now take a modern foreign language I am delighted that 60% of our pupils who took French or German achieved A* to B."
