Students at Lichfield Cathedral School celebrated fantastic GCSE results with 97% of students achieving at least 5 GCSEs with A* - C grades.
Headmaster, Michael Chanter, said: “The students’ commitment, enthusiasm and hard work have been rewarded with excellent grades. I am thrilled that, as a non-selective school, we can celebrate a 100% pass rate, with nearly 40% of the grades being either A* or A grades.”
“Students at every level of ability have worked hard to achieve at or above their own personal targets and, as a result, they are now able to move on with confidence to the next step in our Sixth Form,” said Susan Hannam, Deputy Head.
53% of the entries were at least 1 grade higher than the target grade, which clearly demonstrates the value added by the exceptional teaching, supportive school environment and small class sizes.
“Strong results in the traditional, more demanding academic subjects, combined with our continuing commitment to languages, music, the performing arts and sport, ensure that Cathedral School students are prepared for the challenges of A Levels, university and life beyond,” added Mr Chanter.
