Cromwell Community College, Chatteris, is celebrating a fantastic set of GCSE results with 64 per cent of pupils achieving Level 4 and above in English and Maths. Level 4 is equivalent to the old grade C in these subjects.

In addition, pupils studying chemistry, biology, engineering, ICT and French achieved 100 per cent pass rates at Grade C and above, with nearly 60 per cent of pupils taking chemistry and biology awarded either an A or A*.

Head teacher Mrs Jane Horn said: “I am delighted that the hard work of the pupils and staff has paid off and I’m very proud of their achievements.

“A record number of pupils are aiming to continue their education at Post 16, with the majority opting to stay on to Cromwell Sixth form.”

Cromwell Community College will join the Active Learning Trust from September.

CEO Gary Peile sent his congratulations to Cromwell, writing: “We are very much looking forward to working with Jane and her team to support the students at the College to build on their excellent 2017 GCSE results and achieve their potential.

“I am delighted that Cromwell Community College has decided to join our Trust in September.”
