GCSE students at Chipping Sodbury School are celebrating after receiving their results this morning.

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.

Overall, 41 per cent of students in Year 11 achieved at least one of the top grades 7, 8 or 9.

Headteacher Katherine Turner said: "I am delighted for our students who have had a very positive attitude to their learning and demonstrated resilience especially during these past few months.

"This is a true reflection of the progress these students have made and the hard work by our young people, staff and governors.

"I wish to pay particular tribute to the continuous support provided by families not just over the past few months but throughout Key Stages 3 and 4.

"We enjoy strong and positive relationships which impact on the outcomes for individuals. This adds to the tremendous successes of our Post 16 students earlier this week and is a testament to the robust process we put in place to ensure all students were awarded grades to reflect their achievements and abilities.

"We are very much looking forward to welcoming many of our students back into our Cotswold Edge 6th Form where students succeed and reach their potential."
