Smiles All Round!

It was 'smiles all round' at St Richard Gwyn when school leavers collected their GCSE results this summer.The teachers were rightly proud when pupils exceeded the target set by the Vale with 100% of girls and 98% of boys leaving school with a qualification at GCSE.66% of the results were grades A*-C. We were delighted that the gap between boys and girls has narrowed, with 91% of boys and 92% of girls gaining 5 or more GCSEs. The results in the core subjects of maths, English and science were particularly pleasing.

Pictured here are just some of St Richard Gwyn pupils with their results:
