GCSE Results

We are delighted to report on a hugely successful GCSE results day today. The Library has been a hive of activity and celebration this morning as our Thornton pupils came in to collect their results and share their news with family and teachers.
100% of our Thornton pupils have achieved at least 5 GCSEs at the all important A*-C level. No less than 80% of their grades are B and above, and a staggering 53% off all grades are either A or A* This is a phenomenal performance and reflects the calibre and hard work of our pupils, as well as the wonderful teaching that goes on at Cundall. All our Thornton pupils are now perfectly primed to take up their places at their chosen sixth form destinations, secure in the knowledge that they have a very solid foundation for their A level studies.

We pass on special congratulations to two pupils in particular who are celebrating a clean sweep of As and A*s today: Charlotte Saxby achieved a total of 8 A*s and 3 As whilst classmate Ross Sullivan is celebrating no less than 11 A*s and 2 As. Ross’s celebrations were further heightened by learning that he is one of three pupils of the school to achieve a rare and highly coveted A* with Distinction in his favourite subject of Further Maths.
