“The school community continues to be impressed by the dignity and positivity demonstrated by all upon hearing that the examinations the students had been working so hard towards would not go ahead; their resilience throughout this uncertain period has been impressive.
“We wish our Year 11s a fulfilling future and will be excited to hear of their progress; these results will enable them to move on to their chosen pathways. Their example will inspire those that follow and, as head teacher, I am so very proud of them for all they have achieved.”
