EXCEPTIONALLY proud is an understatement, says head of Sandymoor Ormiston Academy after a successful GCSE results day.
Students at the Runcorn academy appeared before the school gates the yesterday morning, Thursday, filled with trepidation.
As they joined thousands of other students across the country in opening their results to find out if the years of hard work had paid off, many in the cohort were left celebrating from the grades they have received.
Some standout students highlighted by the academy this year included Nicole Speakman.
Nicole achieved two grade 9s in science, grade 8s in English literature, Spanish, and textiles and three grade 7s in psychology, mathematics and English language.
Meanwhile students Jacob Ahern, Thomas O’Mahoney, and Connor O’Sullivan all secured grade 9s, 8s and 7s across the board.
Another strong performer was Anna Stankovianszky who achieved a grade 9 in textiles and two grade 8s in science and English literature.
Sally Jones, principal at Sandymoor Ormiston Academy, commented on the success of the day, saying: “To say we are exceptionally proud of our class of 2024 is an understatement. We recognise how hard they have all worked and what they have achieved is fantastic.
“They have really stood out this year.
"We wish them all the luck they deserve as they step out on to their next adventure.”
