Haydock High Celebrates GCSE Results Success
Haydock High School has experienced yet another set of excellent GCSE results for the 2015/2016 season. Our five A* - C figure with English and Maths increased by 6% on the 2014/2015 season. We experienced our best ever A/A* results at the school, with 12% of all grades achieved being A*/A’s.
Our English Department achieved 90% A*-C grades in English Literature, as well as 73% A*-C grades in English Language. Our Media Department achieved 100% A*-C grades, with Music achieving the same 100% A*-C grades with two-thirds of students passing with a Distinction. Our Philosophy and Ethics department also achieved brilliant results, with 73% of students passing at an A* to C level.
These excellent results are a testament to the hard work and commitment of both the students and staff at the school. Many of our 2015/2016 leavers have already transitioned onto the next step of their lives, either pursuing career choices or options of further education.
In regards to our results for 2015/2016, Headteacher Mr Murphy said: “We are very pleased and proud for our students as they move on to their next phase in their education. It is a privilege to see students grow and develop, and we are grateful for the opportunity to work with such a group of talented people. Our thanks go to all who contributed, and especially the teachers whose experience was invaluable and parents whose support was crucial. It is a partnership in the true sense of the word.”
We wish all of our 2015/2016 leavers the best in their future endeavours and urge our current Year 11’s to aim even higher than our 2015/2016 leavers did.
