Sue Woodroofe, Principal at GSAL, said, “These are outstanding results for the school, some of the best in our history. Our Year 13s are an incredibly talented cohort who have achieved so much, both in the classroom and beyond. They’ve led by example and inspired younger pupils with their positivity and determination. Today is a special moment to celebrate their journey and to thank the families and staff who have been part of it. I couldn’t be more proud of them.”
