Headline figures, at this moment in time, indicate that 83% of pupils achieved Grades 4 and above in English and Maths with 31% of these Grades being at Grades 7 – 9. The average point score per child across all subjects was 5.5 (equivalent to ‘B’ grade). The new accountability measure for Performance Tables indicates that 61% of pupils achieved Grades 5 and above and 62% were entered for the EBACC with the Average Point Score being 5.2 which is a good EBACC pass.
Miss Cronin stated, “I am really pleased for the pupils and staff who have worked so hard to achieve these grades. It has been a challenging period of study for the pupils in the light of changes to the syllabus for each subject and adapting to the new assessment criteria. I am proud of the pupils’ response and their commitment to achieving their best. I would like to thank the staff and parents for the support, encouragement and drive they provided to help each pupil achieve a successful outcome. They are now ready for the opportunities and challenges of Level 3 studies and apprenticeshipsâ€.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern”][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”40px”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern”][vc_column][vc_gallery interval=”3″ images=”21938,21939,21940,21941,21942,21943,21944,21945,21946,21947,21948,21949,21950,21951,21953,21954,21957″ img_size=”large” onclick=””][/vc_column][/vc_row]
