Students celebrate GCSE Results

City Academy has achieved another year of above average progress.

Over 62% of students passed Maths and 65% of students passed English. The number of students achieving a grade 7 or above in English and Maths has doubled, alongside an increase in the number of students achieving grade 9s across the full range of subjects.

Principal, Ben Tucker says ‘I am delighted with the results which reflect the hard work of students, families and staff. We are excited to welcome students to the Academy today to share their success and look forward to hearing about the next stage in their education.

Steve Taylor CEO of the Cabot Learning Federation said: “Across the Cabot Learning Federation, we have almost 1,800 students collecting their results today after 12 years of education, and the day is all about them as individuals. There are some extraordinary stories of young people achieving well against the odds, showing the tenacity and commitment to invest in themselves and their futures. We know that they are making their parents and carers and our colleagues proud, and we’re just as excited to see where they go next as what they find when they open their envelopes today. Well done to them and thank you to the many colleagues who have nurtured their potential and helped them to grow from the first day they were dropped off at school!”
