Congratulations to all our Year 11 students, who have achieved some of our best ever results, with 25% of GCSE grades at G9-7 and 77% of GCSE grades at G9-4. Though there will not be official data on their progress as this year group did not sit SATs in Year 6, their indicative score of 0.3 (based on CATs scores) is above average.

Congratulations to A.C. who achieved eleven G9 grades! A.C. is going to study A Levels in maths, further maths, economics and philosophy in QPCS Sixth Form.

D.D.V. achieved 8 GCSEs at G9, one at G8 and one at G7 and is going on to study computer science, maths and further maths at A Level in QPCS Sixth Form. D.D.V. said, “During my time at QPCS I felt very well supported by my teachers, which allowed me to achieve grades that I am really happy with.”

C.W. is going to study A Levels at QPCS, having achieved excellent progress during their time at the school. C.W. said, “Believe in yourself like I was taught to. I am proud of how my art has developed at QPCS. I went to Ms Cummings every break time to improve my drawing and creativity. Now I will return to QPCS to study A level Photography.”

We had more G9 grades than ever before in mathematics, with one G9 student O.W. saying, “My maths teacher is a shining beacon.”

Twins S.H. and M.H. achieved 15 GCSEs at Grade 9, five at G8 and one at G7. They reflected, “We will never forget our time at QPCS. The experiences and our lovely teachers have shaped us as people for the better.”

Headteacher, Ms Enright said, “We were delighted to be able to celebrate today with this year group who faced the challenge of transitioning to secondary school in the middle of a global pandemic. Well done Year 11, you have shown great resilience and I wish you every success in the next exciting stage of education, employment or training.”
