Exmouth Community College students celebrate GCSE results
Students at Exmouth Community College have been celebrating their achievements as they collected their GCSE results today (Thursday 24 August).
The academy's principal highlighted in particular how staff are "delighted" by pupils' success in spite of the disruption caused by the Covid-19 pandemic - and that attainment levels are higher than they were in 2019.
Principal of Exmouth Community College Andrew Davis said: "It has been a pleasure to see so many of our students and families celebrating their achievements this morning and equally, where support and guidance has been needed, to ensure that every student recognises the many opportunities available to them for September.
"Whilst national headlines point to a significant reduction in top grades, and raised grade boundaries suppressing grades... we are delighted that the students' attainment has performed above levels in 2019, a genuinely great achievement in view of these circumstances.
"My sincere thanks goes to all the staff, both teaching and support, involved in helping students achieve these fantastic results.
"From the Key Stage 4 team led by Mr Holt, fantastically supported pastorally and academically this year by Head of Year 11 Mr Findel-Hawkins, and Pastoral Support Assistant Mrs O'Donnell, to the great team of teachers, tutors, support staff and governors - thank you all.
"I am sure the students would wish to join me in thanking parents, carers and other family members for all of their support during their time in Key Stage 4 and of course for the three years previous in Key Stage 3.
"We do of course wish every student all the very best with whatever next steps they take, both here in the sixth form, or beyond in further education, training or employment."
The college is asking students to email [email protected] if they wish to discuss or confirm their post-16 courses.
