“We are extremely proud of our Class of 2024 for their continued resilience and the results they have achieved, which are hugely deserved. They have worked hard over the last five years, most of which have been extremely challenging for all young people for a variety of reasons, and it has been brilliant to be celebrating their achievements today. The support they’ve been given by Mr Willis and the Year 11 team has again been exemplary – and this shows in their outcomes – and their smiles today.
I would like to thank all of our students, their families, our staff and the wider academy community for their ongoing support and we look forward to seeing our students progress on to the next stage of their education and fulfil their goals.”
