Headmaster Giles Perrin said: "I am so proud of all the students and members of staff involved in these A Level results. It has been a fantastic team effort, only made possible through the hours and hours of study and dedication given by our students combined with the hours of support provided by our staff.

"The academic life of the school goes from strength to strength and we set the highest possible standards and expectations for our students. We have seen the school grow so much over the last six years and every aspect of our programme is strengthening, none more so than the academic life of the school, which has truly become a hallmark of our success."
