Ark Elvin Pupils Achieve Fantastic GCSE Results
Team Elvin were celebrating their best ever set of GCSE results! GCSE results have improved across all key measures.
The results showed an 8% improvement in the number of pupils achieving a grade 4 or above in English and Maths – the second consecutive year that results have risen by this much. More pupils achieved a Grade 5+ and a Grade 7+ than last year.
Pupils study GCSEs in a wide variety of subjects including English, Maths and Science, as well as an option subject like Art, Business or Design Technology.
Pupils were supported by teachers to make the right next step. Many of our pupils are remaining within the Ark network to study a Professional Pathway here at Elvin and with some going to Ark Academy to study A Levels in a range of subjects.
