“There were lots of outstanding results, but the best achievement of all, was how they waited around to support each other and celebrate together.
“Parents were keen to join in the fun and we cannot thank them enough for their support. The students went on to celebrate over breakfast together.
“Well done to all Year 13 students, we are so proud of you all, we will miss you and look forward to catching up next term to hear about your new adventures.”
