Congratulating pupils, Headmaster John Trotman said, “I am so proud of our pupils. Right across the ability range they have performed outstandingly well. Their hard work, enthusiasm and maturity of approach have been so impressive and they are such good company, too. Each of the last three years has seen records tumbling and that takes real determination from the students and from their teachers too. Well done to them!” |
