Headteacher Mr Forbes said: “I am immensely proud of the achievements of all our students. Whatever their starting points on joining the school, the vast majority have made excellent progress and demonstrated resilience, ambition and commitment throughout their studies. Their strong academic outcomes are complemented by impressive contributions to the wider life of the school through the extensive enrichment opportunities available across a broad range of curriculum areas.
These accomplishments have enabled students to progress to their chosen post-16 destinations, whether continuing their studies here at Sponne, pursuing further education, training, or employment. This reflects the school’s ethos of Dream, Believe, Achieve and highlights the dedication of our students, the support of their families, and the expertise of our staff.
We are delighted that many students will be returning to Sponne Sixth Form, where we look forward to guiding them through the next stage of their educational journey. On behalf of the staff and Governors, I warmly congratulate every student on their achievements and wish them every success in the future.”
Mr Trusler, Head of Year 11 said: “Congratulations to all our students. Today is about celebrating not only what our students have achieved, but also where these results will take them next. We are incredibly proud of the progress they have made and the opportunities now open to them. We wish every student every success as they take this exciting next step towards their future.”
Mrs Mort, Head of Sixth Form said: “Following on from an excellent set of A level results last week, we look forward to welcoming many of the students back to the sixth form to start A level and vocational courses. Their excellent GCSE results give them a fantastic foundation for their post 16 studies and we look forward to supporting them and many external students, who will be joining us too, in their next chapter.”
