GCSE Results 2009
Haybridge students were celebrating stunning success as this year’s GCSE results were published.
An amazing 97% of students achieved the gold standard of 5 A*-C GCSE or better, with 84% achieving A*-C GCSE or better including English and Maths. This is a quite outstanding success for the students and the school and one which puts the school in the top 10% nationally.
There has been a pleasing continued increase in the average points score and percentage of A*/A grades, a just reward for all the hard work and commitment of students and staff.
Students Kuljit Bhandal, James Foard, Abigail Palmer, Alasdair Silverman and Eleanor Quinlan achieved 10 or more A* grades.
Headteacher, Caroline Hoddinott, was delighted for both students and staff. “These are truly excellent results for the school. I offer my congratulations to students and staff alike on this fantastic achievement."
She added “All our results this year show that the school ‘adds value’ to all students and achieving such results ensures they all have the best possible life chances. The students are a credit to themselves, their families and the school and I am very proud of them all.’
