Success for Students of The Grove Sixth Form

Huge congratulations to our sixth form students who have received fantastic success. This cohort of students did not sit their GCSE examinations and so this summer’s exams were the first external exams they took resulting in tremendous achievements.

Students at The Grove Sixth Form have worked incredibly hard and shown great strength of character, resilience, adaptability and determination – all of which highlight and reflect the values of our school community.

We are pleased to have such dedicated and talented young adults representing our Sixth Form and we watch with interest as they embark on their next steps. Many have opted to study further securing places at their first choice of university two of which include Russell Group universities. Others have secured officer training within the Forces, apprenticeships, and employment.

Andy Rayner, Head of Sixth Form commented, “We are so proud of our students and their results yet again this year. Despite all the disruption that they have faced over the past couple of years, our students have continued to surpass their own expectations and demonstrated a true strength with these being their first formal exam results after teacher-assessed grades at GCSE. Our students have worked extremely hard and been supported fantastically by their teachers as they now prepare to start their next exciting chapter.’’

Headteacher of The Grove School and Sixth Form, Sonia Taylor added, “This group of students have been exceptional, and the challenges of the pandemic have not held them back. They have approached their studies with maturity and tenacity showing great courage in times of stress and uncertainty. While many of them will be focusing on their grades today, I want to remind them they are more than their grades. They are a true inspiration to all, especially our younger students.’

All the staff at The Grove are immensely proud of everyone’s achievements and wish them well for their future.
