Students gathered at The Academy of St Francis of Assisi to collect their GCSE and BTEC results, celebrating the important milestone with staff, family and friends. The occasion also gave them the chance to reflect on everything they had achieved over the last five years. 

Part of All Saints Multi Academy Trust, The Academy of St Francis of Assisi has recorded another impressive set of GCSE and BTEC results, with students excelling in fine art and textiles, English language and literature, community languages, RE, music, business studies and food and nutrition. 

Many students will now continue their education at All Saints Sixth Form College where they will study a range of A-level and BTEC courses. Others will progress to colleges, apprenticeships and training, taking the next step towards their chosen careers. Among those was Maye Gueye, who achieved 10 GCSEs all at grade 7 and above, including six grade 9s. She intends to study French, maths and textiles at The Belvedere Academy. 

Headteacher, Ms Teresa Bleasdale, said: “Huge congratulations to all of our amazing Year 11 students – it has been wonderful to welcome them back into school for one final time. Seeing our students celebrating everything they have accomplished during their time at The Academy of St Francis of Assisi is a real heartwarming moment for myself and the whole team.”
