Southmoor also celebrates another fantastic year at GCSE with results climbing even further from last year. Terrific twins Elliot and Thomas gained an amazing 21 A*/A grades between them! They were in good company with no less than 14 pupils gaining  8 or more GCSEs at A*/A and a further 22 achieving 5 or more A*/A.

The proportion of pupils gaining C+ in English and maths also improved by 4.3% to 65.3% and 5A*-C by 2 points to 63%. These results remain significantly above national averages and early indications show them to be some of the very highest results in Sunderland. Naturally with such high performance we are seeing record take up for courses at Southmoor’s Sixth Form and with the calibre of entrant, we look forward to great results at A/S and A level next year!
