He said: "I want to congratulate all students on their results. They’ve shown tremendous resilience over the past few years which, as we know, has been severely disrupted. Students should be extremely proud of what they have achieved.
"There are some outstanding individual performances, which is the result of hard work and maintaining a positive attitude to learning.
"As always, it is a team effort. I would like to take this opportunity to thank parents and carers for their continued support, and I express my gratitude to a highly-committed and hard working staff team.
"I wish everyone in the year group the very best of luck for the future."
