Headteacher Zehra Jaffer commented, “We are exceedingly proud of our Year 13s A level results. Each and every one of our young people should be proud. They have shown an incredible commitment to their academic studies despite the very difficult challenges they have faced over the past three years. Our students have demonstrated fortitude, determination, and a real passion for their subjects. They are an absolute credit to the School and their families. As they join the SNS alumni, we are certain they will build on this success to make their mark in the world. Thank you to all the staff, students, and their families - well done all!”
Shekeila Scarlett, Chair of Governors, said, “A massive congratulations to all the students who received their results today. To see so many students beaming with pride and the joy, reflected by teachers and parents has been heart-warming. The post-covid examinations were truly a test of resilience and I'm glad to see that our students did their best. It was incredibly exciting to hear what students plan to do next, whether that be apprenticeships, gap year travelling or chosen universities.
“Also, a huge thank you to staff for the time, energy, and dedication put into supporting the students through exams and achieving the results we have. On behalf of the governors, we wish all students the best for their futures and sharing a kind reminder that no success story looks the same, the sky is not the limit and the world is truly your oyster!”
