Exam Results
GCSE Results Summary 2020
At Spires Academy we are very proud of all our students’ achievements. There is a culture of continual improvement in recent years that has resulted in improved student performance.
In the summer 2019 results we were delighted to see our Year 11 students rewarded for their efforts with excellent grades. Our students have worked incredibly hard and shown resilience in a time of exam reform which caused enormous stress for all. They were supported by our team of committed and talented staff. We are extremely proud of our school community which continues to go from strength to strength.
A number of our students attended the local Medical PRU, Inclusion Service and Alternative Placement provisions, clearly this has a significant impact on our final headline performance figures. We have published both for clarity.
It is important to note that these are not current and we have included a summary of our 2020 Centre Assessed Grades for completeness:
