Best ever GCSE results!

Westbourne Sports College is for a second successive year celebrating its best ever GCSE results.

Headteacher Chris Edwards said, "These really are an exceptional set of results and I am very proud of the students and staff of the college."

In all 58% of students achieved 5+ A*-C with 42% achieving those passes including English and Maths.

"We have smashed the official government target of 35% and also achieved outstanding success for students of all abilities. I am particularly pleased with how well our most able students have done, 47 students achieved 10 or more high grade passes, and the top 10 achieved six or more passes at A* or A." he added.

Outstanding results were achieved by students Nathan Smith, who achieved 10 A*/A grades; Tristan Burridge and Hazel Gardiner both achieved 9 A*/A grades.

Results in Mathematics were particularly pleasing with 57% of students achieving A*-C and 10 achieving A*.

"Two of these students, Daniel Jackson and Dmitri Seymour-Howell were actually awarded maximum marks by the exam board, which is incredible."

"These results are further evidence of the success story Westbourne has become."
