RUGBY High School students are celebrating some of the best GCSE results the school has ever seen today.
Students at the school have outperformed expectations across all GCSE subjects, and have scored a school record number of Grade 9 results – despite the disruption of the pandemic.
The vast majority of students performed above expectations.
A school spokeswoman said: “This is an incredible achievement, and testament to the very highest expectation the school has of its students.
“This is clearly a result of the school’s very clear focus over the last few years of ensuring the most effective planning and delivery of the curriculum, and students have reaped the rewards.”
Headmaster Mark Grady added: “We don’t simply work as an exam factory with only a result in mind, but nurture individuals to achieve and exceed their potential, by working closely with students and families, and with a highly skilled staff.
“This has paid off today, with students gaining all the results they need to go on to their next place of study. As ever, the majority of our students remain with us for A-Level.
“After the last few years, these students have worked incredibly hard in difficult and often rapidly changing circumstances. Their resilience has assured their success and very bright future.
“We could not be prouder of them today, and they should take the time to really celebrate their simply amazing achievements.”
