He said: "We are very pleased that despite all the challenges of the last two years our students have done just as well as they have done in previous years.

"They have earned the grades they have received today through all the hard work, study and learning they have done since starting their courses in September 2019.

"Today's great results will open doors for them to the very best universities, apprenticeships, careers and adventures.

"We are exceptionally proud of them for their resilience, determination and talent. They have truly lived up to our school motto, Esse Quam Videri."
