At Stewards Academy the commitment and hard work of both the pupils and staff has yet again paid off with a very pleasing set of GCSE Exam results.

Despite the challenge of the new GCSEs in English and maths, the core subjects continue to go from strength to strength and see further improvements this year, with maths achieving 72% and English 71% Grades 4-9 (equivalent to A*-C).

A number of subjects were delighted to achieve their best results including media 92%, sociology 85%, and photography 83% (A*-C).

The top five students achieved an amazing 51 top grades between them (A/A* or 7-9). Hannah Furness, one of our top performers, achieved 10 top grades and is planning to study Further Maths, maths, drama and psychology at 6^th Form. Hannah said: “I am proud of myself for managing the exam process and seeing that my hard work has paid off. I am really happy with my results and I am looking forward to taking the next steps in my education.”

Headteacher Designate Helen Ginger said: “I am delighted to see the hard work of staff and pupils rewarded with very pleasing results”.
