Another week and another set of phenomenal exam results for Nower Hill students! Our students
have once again delivered an excellent set of results, this time at GCSE; we are incredibly proud of
our young people and send them our heartfelt congratulations.

Our Year 11 students who, let’s not forget, have encountered significant disruption to their
education in their five years of Secondary education, have excelled. 36% of all grades were at the
highest level of 9 to 7; 84% of all grades at 9 to 4; 67% of all students achieved grade 9 to 5 in English
and Maths and 83% grade 9 to 4. We are absolutely delighted that the outstanding results achieved
will allow all of our students to progress to their next stage of study and are thrilled that the majority
of them will be staying on in Nower Hill’s excellent 6^th Form.

Building the skills and confidence to ensure excellence and success is of course, very much a
community effort and we feel very fortunate indeed to have such a strong school community, where
everyone is invested in the success and achievement of our young people. I would like to extend the
most sincere thanks to our very hard working staff, both those in the classroom and all the support
staff who help to create such a positive and welcoming environment for our students and enable the
school to run so smoothly. A huge thank you as well to all of our wonderful parents and carers, who
always work so collaboratively with us in the best interests of their children and have offered their
unconditional support over the past 5 years. Finally, thank you to the students themselves who have
been an absolute joy to work with and have demonstrated determination and resilience, rather than
succumbing to the negative reporting around the difficulties that young people have faced over the
past few years. They have learned the very important life lesson that hard work really pays off,
whatever the circumstances!

Each and every one of our young people should be proud of what they have achieved and I hope
there will be many joyous family celebrations tonight. Our very best wishes to them all as they
progress to the next stage of their education.
