Seventy two per cent of Year 11 students at Settle College achieved 5A*-C at GCSE, including passes in functional English and Maths.

The results were an improvement on 2009 and the College’s best to date.

Particularly strong performances came from Peter Atkinson, Jennifer Booth, Matthew Bravery, Alex Cardwell, Jack Cokell, Abi Corns, Fraser Edwards, Beth Harrison, Flora Harrison, Robert Hinde, Annabel Holgate, Aleksandra Jastrzebska, Charlotte Jeffrey, Brandon Kowalski, Grace Marshall, Isobel Marshall, George Martin, Fergus Milligan, Daisy Orrell, Jess Strickland, Chris Stuttard, Eleanor Timmins, India Tyrer, Ted Westwood and Jordan Armstrong, who also achieved a BTEC 1st Diploma in Sport.

Principal William Bancroft said: “We are very pleased with the students’ results.

"Once again they have justified their teachers’ confidence with hard work and application, their grades are well deserved.

"The GCSE results and last week’s ‘A’ level results justify the confidence expressed in the College by Ofsted when they judged us to be ‘good with outstanding features’ in April of this year.

"We have recently been re-designated as a Technology College and are delighted that results in all Technology subjects are outstanding.

"We have a fantastic group of students and highly dedicated staff, who are helping the College to go from strength to strength.

The New BTEC in Performing Arts enjoyed a 100 per cent success rate following significant investment in upgrading the College’s Drama, Dance and Media facilities.

Students in Year 9 who have taken Maths and Science qualifications a year early enjoyed significant success, while Peter Middleton and Chloe Hemmington-Green achieved A* in Spanish and French respectively.
