Karl Newell, Headteacher of Crompton House, was once again delighted.

He said: "I am very pleased to congratulate our Year 11 students for their excellent GCSE results.

"It was expected that the overall results would be lower than in the last two years, when grades were based entirely on teacher assessments.

"But they were predicted to be higher than in 2019, the last year exams were taken before the pandemic.

"It is therefore, extremely, pleasing to report that Crompton House School appears to have bucked the anticipated national trend and has achieved results very similar to 2021, with over 80% of pupils achieving a grade four or above in both English and Maths.

"The vast majority of subjects show a greater level of attainment compared to 2019 figures and some exceed what they achieved in 2021.

"Overall, a very positive picture so far and lots to celebrate.

"We are looking forward to seeing many of our students return to Crompton House Sixth Form in September, and hearing how others have been successful in gaining places on various college courses."
