The school achieved a 75 per cent A* - C pass rate with more than a quarter of all students achieving all A* or A grades.

Headteacher Helen Loughran said: "This is a fantastic achievement. The media have been warning that A-level results were set to drop this year which makes what the students and their teachers have achieved all the more impressive. They worked so hard and absolutely deserve the superb results they have gained. I wish them every success as they move on to the next stage in their careers. We are all very proud of them."
