“These results, together with the tremendous A level results last week, clearly show that great things are happening at King Henry VIII School. We are delighted with the success of all our students and recognise the effort and commitment shown by both the staff and the students in achieving such a pleasing set of results. We are confident that as a result of this success large numbers of students will be returning to the Sixth Form to take advantage of the excellent teaching for Post-16 students provided by the school. We share in the pride of the parents who have worked in partnership with the school and supported their children in helping to produce these excellent results.”
