FORM 6 pupils at Ghyll Royd School in Burley in Wharfedale are celebrating fantastic SATs results, as they retain the school’s 100 per cent pass rate for the fourth consecutive year.

The pupils passed all of their English, Maths and Spelling, Punctuation and Grammar tests by either reaching or exceeding the age-related expectations.

The national average for Writing, Reading and Maths in all schools in England this year is 61 per cent.

The children have been working hard all year in preparation for their May exams, and are also delighted to have all secured their place in their secondary schools of choice which include Ilkley Grammar School, Bradford Grammar School, Ermysteds Grammar School, St Mary’s Menston, Upper Wharfedale School and Woodhouse Grove School.

Form 6 teacher Mrs Sue Marshall said: “I am over the moon with the children’s results. My class have worked very hard leading up to their May exams and can now celebrate and be proud of their achievement, enjoy their summer break, and prepare for secondary school. We wish them the very best of luck in their new schools.”

The children will celebrate their results with a pyjama disco thrown for the entire school to enjoy. More information on Ghyll Royd's SATs results can be viewed at: https://www.ghyllroydschool.co.uk/school/academic-attainment/
