GCSE grades rise for East Point Academy

The wait is over for our East Point Academy students who collected their GCSE results from school this morning. Many students were waiting eagerly before the school opened and attended with friends and family who shared in their success. 

Collectively, 74% of pupils achieved grades 9-4 in both English and maths – 54% were at grades 9-5. Another fantastic year for the students of our town and school, with an 11% rise in 9-5 English and maths on last year's results. 

The success in these results enables our students to follow their dream career paths and if they would like to, pursue studying at A-Level or go on to apprenticeships. 

Pete Seadon, Principal at East Point Academy said: 

“Congratulations to the students of East Point Academy receiving their GCSE results today. These are the school's best-ever exam results. The outcomes reflect our pupils' hard work and dedication, and we are immensely proud of their achievements. It was wonderful to celebrate with students as they opened their results today. Thank you to their families, the wider community and our fantastic staff for their commitment and support. We wish our students every success as they take their next steps.” 

But don’t take our word for it, this is what our students think: 

Finlay said, 'I'm really happy and especially proud of my English Literature result.' 

Sophie said, 'I've done so well and I'm really happy.' 

Jackson joked 'These results are so good they can't be mine!' 

Poppy said, 'I am so impressed with my results.' 

Alfie said, 'The results are really good for me. I can follow the career I would like to.'
