Burnham: Academy pupils celebrate successful GCSE results
4:00pm Tuesday 28th August 2012 in Local News By Emma Robinson
Chris Charlton, Charlie Brewer, Jack Page and David Boyd celebrate
Burnham’s academy pupils celebrated their GCSE results this week, despite a number of schools across the country reporting unprecedented lower grades in English.
Ormiston Rivers Academy’s percentage of A* to C grades at GCSE not including English and Maths was 86 per cent.
Principle Joan Costello was reluctant to release the percentage for A* to C grades including English and Maths as the English results were lower than expected nationally.
Despite this she said she was delighted with the results overall.
She said: “I am over the moon with the results, there is such an array of A* and A grades.
“I am really impressed with all their achievements."
