Highest GCSE Results in the School's History!
We were delighted to see the results of Year 11 students rise to the highest ever result for the Government’s 5A* to C GCSE indicator (including English and Maths) and the second highest ever results for 5A* to C GCSE with all other subjects.
This shows a progress level which puts ETC in the top few percent of schools in the country because students made such a lot of progress while they were here. In assemblies this week, I asked students which was the better achievement; a student who comes into the College at a grade B in Year 7 who ends up at a grade B in Year 11, or a student who comes in at an F and gets a C by Year 11. Almost everyone said it was the one who improved who had done better, and that is how I think we should see the ETC results in comparison with other schools.
A good school is one that helps its students to make excellent progress, not just one that gets them to the expected levels.
