Students and staff at Selston High School, are celebrated on Thursday August 24th as students received their GCSE grades.

After much hard work studying and preparing, pupils at the school have been excitedly collecting a set of fantastic GCSE results, demonstrating their dedication and tenacity to their studies over the last two years.

Everyone has come together to mark the achievements of all the students, who have worked exceptionally hard over the past couple of years to secure these grades.

Alongside the continued success of the school, there are also some standout individual performances, including:

  • Santa Sprutke has achieved an exceptional set of results with Grade 9 in English Language, English Literature, Biology, Chemistry, History, French and Art & Design, and Grade 8 in Maths and Physics. We wish her all the best with her A Levels and future studies.
  • Melinda Radford has achieved Grade 9 in Maths, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Computer Science and History, Grade 8 in English Literature and Spanish and Grade 7 in English Language. These are a fantastic set of results and we wish Melinda the best of luck in her A Levels.

David Broomhead, Headteacher of Selston High School, said:

“Congratulations to all students at Selston High School on achieving some excellent examination results. 

“The students have demonstrated determination and resilience throughout their 5 year secondary school journey; studying through the Covid 19 pandemic and lockdown. 

“The class of 2023 quickly understood the importance of Year 11 as they made the transition from Year 10. Staff have been particularly impressed by the positive attitude to learning across all subjects since the start of the year. Year 11 have continued to lead the way for other year groups, setting the standard to which other students must aim to achieve.

“It has been a pleasure to work with this talented group of young people; we wish Year 11 all the best as they embark on the next chapter of their journey.”
