“I would like to congratulate all of the girls in their achievements and wish them well as they move onto their next chapter.”
Head of sixth form Jess Billington said: “This year’s Year 13 have not had it easy, they missed much of their GCSE years as well as their exams in Year 11.

“The girls have been incredibly supportive of each other arranging group revision sessions, being there for one another and boosting morale through to their final exams.
“The results of every girl are a testament to the hard work they have put in and we couldn’t be prouder.”
