“I am immensely proud of the GCSE cohort,” says Headmaster Rob Haworth. “The boys this year, in particular, have performed exceptionally well with 100% pass rate which bucks the national trend of girls outperforming boys in academic subjects. However, this does not detract from the highly successful results achieved by the girls who consistently exceed beyond expectation, through their hard work, effort and outstanding input from their teachers.”
