Principal, Mr. Iestyn Brown, said “These results give real cause for celebration, and we are all proud of the successes which we have seen in our Post-16 examination performance this year. The results are particularly rewarding when analysed against students’ prior attainment and reflect positively on the opportunities offered by the school to a wide range of students of all abilities. I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate all our students on their considerable achievements and to thank our team of dedicated teachers and support staff who have worked incredibly hard in order to bring about these successes”.
