Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

THE ABBEY’S Year 11 students received a splendid set of GCSE results on Thursday, August 25.

Over 90 percent of all results were between grades 7-9, which are the equivalent of straight A and A*s in the former grading scheme.

Just under half, 47 percent, of all entries were the top grade 9, and over 75 percent were either 8s or 9s.

In total, 22 students secured nine or more grade 9s and a quarter of the year group received 8s and 9s across the board.

Head of The Abbey School, Will le Fleming, commented: “We are so proud of the year group as a whole and for what they have achieved, given all that has happened over the last two years.

“But above all we are proud of every single individual. Our goal is to support each student to achieve their own personal best and to live and study with joy.

“We can’t wait to work alongside this brilliant cohort as they go on to Sixth Form and all that lies beyond.”
