“We wish our students the very best of luck with their next steps and would like to thank our brilliant staff, families and wider school community for their ongoing support over the last two years.”
For the second year running, young people’s grades have been determined by teachers and are based on work they have produced throughout their course, after formal exams were scrapped due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
These grades were then moderated and assessed by external exam boards.
