Headmaster David Gee was very pleased with the results and said "Each student's personal achievement is worthy of a celebration. I'm very proud of all our 2011 Leavers, especially with a 100% graduation rate. It was wonderful to see so many of the 2011 cohort achieve such high results, especially these twelve young men, who have worked so hard. It is also exciting that 37% of the cohort received scores over 90 and 21% of them over 95."
