Our teachers, learning mentors and pastoral staff have run additional revision sessions, interventions and offered 1:1 support and I am tremendously grateful to each and every one of them. We now look forward to welcoming so many of the 2024 cohort back in September as they embark upon their ‘A’ level and BTEC qualifications.”
