Oakgrove School is celebrating its students GCSE results today, with 92% achieving a grade between 4 and 9 in English and 82% achieving the same in Mathematics.
A grade 4 roughly corresponds to a grade C using the old GCSE grading system, with grade 9 being the highest grade possible.
The school is also celebrating an overall pass rate of 84% across all subjects, surpassing the national average.
Headteacher at Oakgrove School Ian Tett said: "These GCSE grades recognise the ability, dedication and hard work that students at Oakgrove applied to their studies."
"They can be assured that for each subject the school fairly and impartially submitted centre assessed grades based on a range of performance evidence across the entire course."
"Since the end of March, it has been an extremely unsettling time for students, and I applaud them for adapting so quickly to the changes in their everyday school life."
"They had to become accustomed to being educated virtually, get used to not having daily interactions with their peer groups and had to cope with so much uncertainty in the lead up to receiving their GCSE results."
"I am delighted that an exceptionally high number of students will be continuing their studies with us, which is testament to the reputation of Oakgrove’s sixth form. We look forward to welcoming them back in September, alongside the new external post-16 students.”
