Conway-Hughes: Students have worked unbelievably hard
The Head of Sixth Form, Mrs Hayley Conway-Hughes, is absolutely thrilled with the outcomes and said,
“We are so excited for the students today; they have worked unbelievably hard and deserve all of their successes. Our thanks go out to the staff team, it’s been an incredibly challenging couple of years.
“The standards of provision continue to be very high in the Sixth Form at Christ the King College and these results are a testament to the care and attention we offer our students. They are fantastic young people who have very exciting futures ahead of them and we wish them continued success in all that they do.”
No performance data
This year, following the cancellation of exams, grades were awarded through a process of teacher assessed grades, against a national standard and approved and awarded by the exam boards.
The government is not publishing performance data for any schools or colleges this year due to the varying impact of the pandemic.
McDermott: Immensely proud
Christ the King college’s headteacher, Mr McDermott, said,
“We are immensely proud of all the work and achievements of our students, especially after such a difficult and disrupted year.
“Our teachers have worked tirelessly to ensure students are all able to progress onto further education and study, and we look forward to seeing what they will achieve in the future.”
