Read
articles below about the following 2 pupils who despite suffering with
serious medical conditions during their GCSE work, achieved great results!
(Taken from the Rochdale Observer, Saturday 27th August).
The
headmaster, Mr Marc Morris, said, "Once again
we have maintained the high standards we have worked so hard
to achieve over the last few years and I want to thank parents
as well as teachers for their unstinting efforts. Education
is a partnership between the students, parents and school to
encourage and guide the young people to achieve the best results
they can. And let's not forget the excellent foundations to
learning which are laid by the primary schools in the valley.
We can together celebrate the successes of year 11 and feel
proud that we have helped them along the way."
