Students at 蜜桃传媒 Celebrate Strong Set of GCSE Results
24th August 2023
After much hard work studying and preparing, students across our secondary schools are celebrating receiving their GCSE results today as national grading returns to pre-pandemic levels.
In a year where outcomes, nationally, have returned to 2019 levels, and following the disruption seen during the pandemic, the outstanding support provided by each of our schools has enabled students to achieve the outcomes needed to move onto the destination of their choice.
Students are now looking forward to progressing onto their chosen further education institutions, with many remaining at one of the trust鈥檚 sixth forms to study A-levels and vocational qualifications.
Dawn Haywood, Chief Executive at 蜜桃传媒, remarked, "I am delighted to see students from across the 蜜桃传媒 family achieve such strong results in their GCSEs today. I couldn鈥檛 be prouder of our students and our staff who have worked so hard for these successes."
Here are some of the standout achievements from across our schools:
