This year, six students achieved places at Oxbridge with a significant number also going on to medical related courses. In addition to university courses, the school has seen a growing number of students taking the opportunity to study a degree apprenticeship.

Students will be joining companies such as Thales, Carter Jonas, ITI Group, CBRE, Carnival UK, and Barclays plc Headteacher John Harrison, said “We are really proud of our fabulous students.
