A delighted Peter Agnew, headteacher at the school, commented:

‘Stricter rules governing the type of GCSEs which count towards measuring school performance have not dented the ambition and achievement of our students, who continue to thrive under the care and dedication of our excellent staff.’

Among the high number of pupils who did exceptionally well were:

Eleanor Yates of Rossett : 7A* and 4As

Ben Consterdine of Marford : 6A* and 2As
