🌟ACADEMY SIXTH FORM STUDIES🌟

After our best ever Academy A-Level results, where over 1/3 of our pupils achieved A* grades, we are expecting a lot of interest from pupils hoping to return to Sixth Form. Once you receive your GCSE results tomorrow (8.30-11am) you can meet with Senior Staff to discuss your options and confirm your place. Students wishing to transfer from other local schools are also welcome to attend at this time. Good luck to all of our students getting their GCSE results this week.
