Scott Hudson, Chief Executive, TDET, said: “Once again, our GCSE students have made us incredibly proud with their brilliant exam results. It has been wonderful to see their progress and development, not only over the past two years but throughout their secondary education despite the significant levels of disruption they have experienced. For them to reap the rewards of their hard work and commitment to their studies is great to see.

“Our Trust values include Excellence and Transformation, values which can certainly be applied to our students’ successes today as they enhance their future aspirations and career goals.

“I’d like to thank our passionate and enthusiastic teaching and support staff across the Trust’s senior academies, who positively impact our young people’s lives and enable them to reach their full potential.  

“We look forward to welcoming many of our students back in September to our excellent Sixth Forms and, for those who are departing, we’d like to wish them well for a bright and successful future.”
