Well done to everybody at Corby Technical School!
Students at Corby Technical School will be taking up sixth form places, apprenticeships and college courses after receiving their results.
School principal Angela Reynolds said: “I am so proud of each of our students today who have achieved excellent results that are thoroughly deserved. The accomplishments seen today are a real tribute to the incredible work ethic and drive shown across the year group. Celebrations were absolutely in order which I was thrilled to be a part of this morning.
“Students have faced great obstacles over the last few years and have demonstrated resilience and perseverance throughout their studies despite the turbulence. It is always a pleasure to be part of our student’s journeys as we witness them moving on.”
She added: “Maintaining the same upbeat, determined attitude that has been shown will propel our pupils forward as they take the next steps, and there is no doubt they all have the potential for fantastic, successful futures. I look forward to welcoming many students back to the sixth form to begin their A-Level studies and work toward their next steps. I am thrilled to see the rest of the students moving a step toward their life ambitions and wish them every success in their careers.
“I am grateful to our teachers and school staff who have supported and motivated our students throughout, and a massive thank you to parents and carers for their consistent encouragement. Most importantly, thank you to all our students for allowing us to be part of their journey. We look forward to having you back at Corby Technical School where you can share your successes and inspire our future school leavers.
“Every teacher and educational staff have enjoyed getting to know our Year 11 and will always be really proud of them.”
A great day of celebration for students at Brooke Weston Academy!
Brooke Weston Academy celebrate another successful GCSE results day
Students at Brooke Weston Academy, part of the Brooke Weston Trust, are celebrating another set of fantastic GCSE exam results today. The school are incredibly proud of all 179 GCSE students for their hard work, determination and perseverance throughout this challenging year.
The academy’s Principal, Shaun Strydom said: “All of our students have worked incredibly hard throughout this difficult period, and we are so proud of their achievements.
“In particular, I would like to say a huge thank you to all of our staff for their ongoing efforts and for the support and motivation they have provided to our students during this time.
“Even though students have faced many challenges this year, we feel they have handled themselves exceptionally well throughout, and their results are a reflection of this. We will be available to provide support and assistance to all students that require it in the coming weeks and wish everyone leaving us the best of luck in their future endeavours.”
The top performing student at Brooke Weston Academy was Marcus Ciobanu who achieved grade 9’s in all of his subjects. Marcus will be staying on at the Brooke Weston Sixth Form to study Maths, Further Maths, Physics and Computer Science. Marcus gave some wonderful words of wisdom to the younger students. He said: “Do not underestimate the time you get to spend in lessons with your teachers. Completing revision outside your lessons is good, but it will never compare to the time spent in lessons with amazing teachers.”
Also amongst their top performers were Charlotte Fletcher, Ruby Gardiner, Mia Brown and Amelia Millier who all achieved grade 8’s and 9’s in every subject! All four students said that their success is down to hard work and determination, as well as working closely with their teachers at Brooke Weston. All four students are staying on at Brooke Weston to study for their A levels.
Students also amongst their top performers include Zahra Kahn, Ruby, Markham, Matthew Starkey and Yazmine Sharif who all achieved a grades 7, 8 and 9 across all subjects. All of the above students are continuing their sixth form study at Brooke Weston Academy.
There were many other students achieving a grade profile of 7, 8 and 9’s, which is a tremendous achievement and many others achieved exceptional individual results.
