Headteacher Julia Polley said she was delighted that the hard work had paid off for the year 11s.
“They were an amazing year group and all have achieved the grades they need.
“They were my first full cohort from years 7 to 11 so I’m extremely proud that they now have such a fantastic conclusion to a challenging year.”
