We are incredibly proud of our Year 13 students as we celebrate improved Post-16 results across both academic and vocational courses. There were some fantastic achievements across the Sixth Form:

⭐ Strong A Level performances, including Sociology and English Literature
⭐ Excellent vocational results across Health & Social Care, Engineering and Sport
⭐ Some exceptional individual achievements, including A*, A*, A and several students achieving A*, A, A
⭐ Improved outcomes across our Post-16 provision as a whole

Behind every result is a huge amount of hard work, determination and support. We are incredibly proud of all our students and grateful to the staff, families and wider academy community who have supported them throughout their Sixth Form journey.

What a fantastic first day of Summer School for our new Year 7 students! 🌟

They have been brilliant throughout the day, polite, engaged and excited to be here. Students enjoyed a range of activities in ICT, Maths, PE and Science, making a fantastic start to their transition to secondary school.

We are looking forward to welcoming even more students tomorrow.

Well done to everyone who joined us... we can't wait to see you again tomorrow! 👏

Our Belgium trip had another incredible day of learning and remembrance.

Students began the day at Newfoundland Memorial Park, walking through preserved trenches and across what was once No Man's Land, bringing their classroom learning to life. They then visited the Sunken Lane, Hawthorn Crater and Lochnagar Crater before travelling to the Thiepval Memorial, where many students were fascinated to find the names of soldiers who shared their own surnames.

A particularly moving moment came when Coach 1 helped Ms Parry locate the headstone of her great-great-grandfather, allowing her to lay a poppy in his memory.

The day concluded in the centre of Ypres, where four of our students had the honour of laying wreaths during the Last Post Ceremony at the Menin Gate. It was an incredibly proud and poignant moment, and they represented Pingle with maturity, dignity and respect throughout.
