Headteacher Margaret Ryan said: “I am enormously proud of the students and their excellent achievements, and thank all the staff for their hard work in supporting them on their journey with us, and parents and carers for their invaluable support as well.

Head of sixth form Catherine Dunton added: “We are delighted for all of our students who have achieved amazing grades and are now able to go on to take up places at universities and apprenticeship providers.

“This was their first experience of sitting external exams as their GCSEs were cancelled due to the pandemic, so they should be really proud of themselves for what they have achieved over the last two years.

"We wish them every success as they take their next steps and look forward to welcoming them back as BSF alumni in the future.”
