There were smiles and celebrations at Ormiston Horizon Academy this morning as students collected their GCSE results, the culmination of two years of determination and hard work.
The Stoke-on-Trent academy has seen its Year 11 students achieving across the board and securing exciting next steps in further education and training.
The Year 11 cohort achieved particularly highly in a range of subjects including physical education, hospitality and catering, statistics and performing arts.
We’re so proud of our students, they’ve put in so much effort and it’s fantastic to see that hard work pay off.
