Results in maths have seen a big improvement with the school pleased with these results and results in English, science, dance and media. Peter Tomkins, vice Principal, said: “Our students have done well and results have risen for the second year running.
“Many students will be delighted with their grades which will allow them to make a range of choices going forward and we are pleased that many will be joining us in the sixth form.
“We are also pleased that these results show a narrowing of the gap between the achievement of disadvantaged students and other students at Montsaye.”
