Lightcliffe Academy is celebrating exam success this morning as many students received a strong set of results. A raft of students received top grades, demonstrating conscientiousness, commitment and academic achievement. The bar has been raised this year, meaning that success at the top end is all the more admirable.
Eliora Sitch was delighted to achieve four GCSEs at grade 9, as well as three grade 8s. Amy Syrop, Head Girl at Lightcliffe Academy, likewise attained top grades across the board with all GCSE grades at a 7 or above. She said, “I am really pleased with how I have done and for everything that Lightcliffe Academy has done for me.”
Along with many other students, Louis Challoner also celebrated success this morning with two grade 9 GCSEs, two grade 8s and grade 6s and 7s in his other subjects. Zac Stead also achieved top grades, with one grade 9, one Level 2 Distinction*, three grade 8s and three grade 7s. He said, “I am most pleased with my grade 9 in business studies as this will help me as I go to on to student economics at sixth form.”
Staff and students at Lightcliffe Academy are incredibly proud of Scarlet Garland who achieved strong passes in all her subjects while competing for Great Britain in artistic swimming at the European Championships. This is a fantastic achievement, and we look forward to seeing her compete in the future and go from strength to strength in her sporting talent.
Jo Hackett, Head of School, was delighted with the results: “I am really proud of the students this morning. They have worked incredibly hard and shown great resilience, maturity and commitment. They will go on to achieve great things, and I wish them all the very best. I also want to say thank you to our team of brilliant staff as they worked tirelessly to ensure our students were well prepared for their exams. I am lucky to be Head at Lightcliffe Academy.”
