Following on from our fantastic results for SFH6, we are delighted to share a strong set of KS4 results. We are thrilled that our students have achieved an excellent set of results which reflect the high-quality teaching and learning they have received over the past five years from our dedicated staff. Congratulations to all our students, we are so proud of you! 

68% of students achieved a grade 4 and above in English and Maths and 48% at 5 and above. 83% of all students achieved a 4+ in English and 70% of our students achieved a 4+ in Maths. 14% of all entries gained a grade 8/9 (A*) and 28% of all entries gained a grade 7 (A) or above.  

We're particularly proud that the gap between our disadvantaged and non-disadvantaged students has closed by over half a grade, bucking the national trend.  There have also been some exceptional individual performances from Emily who achieved an average grade 9, Naima an average grade of 8.8 and Sophia M and Sophia H who achieved an average grade of 8.5. 

These results showcase the collective effort of our entire school community. Our dedicated staff, supportive governors and committed families have all played crucial roles in this success. Most importantly, our students have demonstrated remarkable determination and resilience, investing countless hours in their studies. To every KS4 student who received results this year: congratulations on achieving your first set of formal qualifications. You've not only earned these grades but also proven your ability to overcome challenges. We're immensely proud of your accomplishments and excited to see what you'll achieve next. Well done to everyone involved in this journey!
