The boys at Sky Academy have done well in their exams this year and have exceeded last year’s outcomes in terms of the number of qualifications achieved by each student.
Almost all of the Year 11 cohort have secured a place in further education or an equivalent pathway appropriate to needs.
Children have received GCSEs in English, maths, art, Duke of Edinburgh Bronze Award, food technology as well as PE.
Some 69% achieved a qualification in both English and maths, with 85% earning a qualification in maths and 92% achieving a qualification in English.
Sky Academy Principal Gaby Long Principal: “It has been great welcoming several of our students and parents in today to receive their results, to celebrate their personal successes and the progress that they have made throughout their time at Sky.
“I am delighted that so many of our 11 cohort have secured a post-16 destination. I’m also pleased with the academic outcomes and the number of children who have achieved so many qualifications and have the currency they need to take the next steps towards adulthood, employment and independence.
“Our team are all extremely proud of every single one of our young people who are brilliant ambassadors for our school and community.”
The Sky Academy students were among nearly 2,000 young people across the Cabot Learning Federation (CLF) who received their results today – with many celebrating outstanding results and getting set for the next stage of their education.
CLF Deputy CEO Sally Apps said: “As a trust we would like to extend our congratulations to the 1,994 students who are receiving their GCSE and equivalent qualifications today.
“These are the result of considerable effort, diligence and determination and the results celebrated today are opening the door to a range of excellent onward destinations for our young people who have studied at our mainstream and specialist schools.
“It is with considerable gratitude to our staff and parents that we celebrate, knowing that these outcomes are achieved as a result of a considerable team effort.
“It is particularly pleasing to see that this year, more young people who have experienced challenge and disadvantage during their school career are collecting strong results.
“We are proud of them and delighted for them, and wish all CLF Year 11 students – now part of our valued alumni and in many cases continuing their onward study with us – a happy and successful educational career.”
