"This year group has been delightful, with some unforgettable personalities.

"Grateful thanks must go out to their families, along with those of our Year 10 pupils, who have studied early for GCSEs, as without their sustained support the pupils and, in turn, the school, could not have progressed.

Sixth form at Campion beckons for many of our Year 11 pupils as we make preparations to encourage them on to even greater success over the next two years.

Jon Shires, the head of school at Trinity, said: “Students should be proud of their results as they reflect their hard work and achievements during their time at school, not solely the results of an algorithm. It was a pleasure to see so many students smiling knowing they have secured their places on post 16 courses given the turmoil and uncertainty of last week”

Executive principal Tom Leverage added: “We are absolutely delighted for our students.

"GCSE results day is a culmination of five years of hard work and we must not allow the extraordinary events of the last few months to taint the joy and success of these pupils.

"I am delighted that all of our pupils have achieved the grades they needed to secure their places at sixth form and college and I wish them the very best for all of their future endeavours.”
