Students at Brooke Weston Academy, part of the Brooke Weston Trust, are celebrating another set of fantastic GCSE exam results today. We are incredibly proud of all 179 GCSE students for their hard work, determination and perseverance throughout this challenging year.

The academy’s Principal, Shaun Strydom said: “All of our students have worked incredibly hard throughout this difficult period, and we are so proud of their achievements.

“In particular, I would like to say a huge thank you to all of our staff for their ongoing efforts and for the support and motivation they have provided to our students during this time.

“Even though students have faced many challenges this year, we feel they have handled themselves exceptionally well throughout, and their results are a reflection of this. We will be available to provide support and assistance to all students that require it in the coming weeks and wish everyone leaving us the best of luck in their future endeavours.”

Our top performing student was Marcus Ciobanu who achieved grade 9’s in all of his subjects! Marcus will be staying on at the Brooke Weston Sixth Form to study Maths, Further Maths, Physics and Computer Science. Marcus gave some wonderful words of wisdom to our younger students. He said, “Do not underestimate the time you get to spend in lessons with your teachers. Completing revision outside your lessons is good, but it will never compare to the time spent in lessons with amazing teachers.”

Also amongst our top performers were Charlotte Fletcher, Ruby Gardiner, Mia Brown and Amelia Millier who all achieved grade 8’s and 9’s in every subject! All four students said that their success is down to hard work and determination, as well as working closely with their teachers at Brooke Weston. All four students are staying on at Brooke Weston to study for their A levels.

Students also amongst our top performers include Zahra Kahn, Ruby, Markham, Matthew Starkey and Yazmine Sharif who all achieved a grades 7, 8 and 9 across all subjects. All of the above students are continuing their sixth form study at Brooke Weston Academy.

There were many other students achieving a grade profile of 7, 8 and 9’s, which is a tremendous achievement and many others achieved exceptional individual results.

A number of students have secured prestigious apprenticeships or are continuing their studies at college or alternative sixth forms. Millie Cleaver has secured an apprenticeship in Structural Engineering with BCAL Consulting in Wellingborough. Josh Denn-Driver is going to study Level 3 Animal Management with Science at Moulton College and Charli Moxam is going to study Sport at Tresham College in Kettering.

Over 120 of students this year are staying at Brooke Weston to study for their A levels, with the remainder opting for alternative sixth forms, college or apprenticeships. We are proud of all of our students and wish them all every success in the future.
