GSCE Results – Brine Leas

Statement from the Head, Dave Cole:

I am delighted to announce that the GCSE and BTec results mean that this year our students have achieved amazing results in the most turbulent of times. Only the most senior members of our community will remember a time with an equivalent level of disruption over such a long period of time. Credit to the students, parents, and staff for completing GCSE and BTec courses with incredible success. So many of our Year 11 students have managed to achieve results that get them into our sixth form, on to college or into apprenticeships.

Success is evident across the ability range, and we are extremely pleased with every grade achieved from 9 through to 1, as appropriate to the students that attained them. Much has been said about this year's examinations, but the preparation for and sitting of the exams by students and the marking of the exams by the boards remains unchanged.

The results include 150 Grade 9s, 175 Grade 8s and 300 Grade 7s and 12 Distinction and Distinction* which is a amazing achievement.

There are literally too many individual successes to mention, but special congratulations to the following students:

* Chris C and Isaac L who achieved 8 Grade 9s and 1 Grade 8

* Amelie V, Lydia B, Ben J, Jack Q, Charlie W, Christina B, Alice J, Nathan M, Rebecca P, Ellie P, Alex W and Lydia W who achieved at least 5 Grade 9s (and Distinction">

* Rebecca P, Harry T, Maisy G, Ciara L-B, Holly G, Ella S, George T who have achieved in the region of 3 grades higher from their starting points in Key Stage 2

Well done!
