Hagley Catholic High School celebrates 'wonderful' GCSE results
Emmaus Catholic Multi Academy Company and Hagley Catholic High School are celebrating another wonderful set of results from our Year 11 Class of 2025.
This year group had the most phenomenally disruptive start to their secondary education having joined Hagley in September 2020 with life in COVID bubbles, periods of enforced isolation as a result of contact tracing and 2 months in a national lockdown at the start of the Spring term in 2021.
The fact that they have gone on to do so well is testament to them and the work done to minimise the impact of this terrible period at a crucial time in their education, secondary transition is tough enough at the best of times
And yet they have stepped up to the challenges laid before them and taken every opportunity to ensure that period in time did not define them or their educational achievements.
This has been realised in some amazing results for Hagley this year. 80% of all students got a Grade 4 or above in both English and Maths with more than half achieving grade 5 or better. More than 70% of all students achieved 5 GCSEs at Grade 4 or above, including English and Maths, and almost a quarter of all grades were at grade 7 or above.
Mr Hodgson, Principal of Hagley Catholic High School, commented: “As always, I am full of pride. Our students have responded to the challenge of education and examinations and so many of them are delighted with their efforts and outcomes. There are always those that are a little disappointed too, but I am confident that the education they have received has put them in a good place for their future either at Hagley or elsewhere.”
Mrs Palmer, Head of Year 11, added: “Students have stepped up as I knew they would and have the results to show for their hard work and commitment. It has been a huge pleasure to lead them through Year 11 and onto the next stage of their education.”
Mrs Horan, Chief Executive Officer, added: “We are delighted with these wonderful results which reflect the hard work of students and staff alike. Thank you to our families for their support and to our staff who have worked tirelessly to prepare our young people to successfully move on to their next chosen pathway. A special thank you to our students who have approached their studies with such strength and determination. I wish them every success for the future.”
We look forward to welcoming our current Hagley and our growing number of external students to our fabulous Sixth Form in September.
