GCSE Results 2022
We are proud to announce that this year’s GCSE results demonstrate continued strong improvement. We have seen an increase in the numbers of students achieving a pass or higher across a range of exams. The number achieving a strong pass in both maths and English has increased by more than 15% and students achieved three times more top grades (7 or above) than in the last public exam season.

Covid Testing
The government has removed the legal requirement to self isolate following a positive test. However, students who test positive are advised to stay at home and avoid contact with other people until they feel well enough to return to school. for at least three full days and then continue to follow the guidance until they have received two negative test results on consecutive days.
When to stay at home if you have coronavirus (COVID-19) and what to do – NHS (www.nhs.uk)
Please report any Covid-19 absences on Class Charts or the attendance line: 01823 348201
