At Therfield we are, once again, very pleased with our students’ results in the more challenging GCSEs this year.  Due to the change in exams, direct comparisons with previous years is very difficult, but there was a significant improvement in the percentage of students achieving a “good” pass grade in both English and Maths compared to the last three years.  This year group worked extremely hard to prepare for these demanding exams and we’d like to congratulate the students on their many successes.  I’d also like to pay tribute to our hardworking teachers and staff who prepared the students so well for this examination season.
