GCSE Results
"We are delighted with this year's GCSE results, 47 percent of our students have achieved five or more A*- C grades, including Maths and English. This continues the rapid progress made over the past years, and marks nearly a 50 percent increase in students scoring the top grades since last year, which is a real achievement for Accrington.Since becoming an academy, the standards at Accrington have continued to rise and the improvement in our GCSE results shows that we are on the right track to secure an even stronger set of grades next year.
Accrington feels strongly about pastoral support and focusing on the individual, and over the past year we have developed a personalised programme for each student to ensure they receive the support in order to achieve the best grades they can. This has really paid off, with a much improved overall picture plus some outstanding individual performances. I am very proud of both our students and our staff."
