‘Outstanding’ GCSE results for Christ’s Hospital pupils

Headteacher Simon Reid said: “Pupils at Christ’s Hospital should be very proud of all they have achieved in what for many has been a profoundly challenging lead up to these assessments.

“The care, dedication and support offered by staff throughout the preparation and assessment process has provided a solid platform from which these pupils have, in many respects, excelled whether that be with an individual challenge or across the board.”
