Alan Porteous, Headteacher, said “We are very pleased that the results in our Centenary Year continue to demonstrate our sustained record of high academic attainment.  Clearly these excellent results have required considerable hard work and commitment from both our students and staff, and we congratulate them on their achievements. There are many outstanding individual successes and we wish all our students well as they move on to the next stage in their lives.”
