They are all exceptional, inspiring and talented young people, and we couldn’t be prouder of them. We are very pleased with these results that continue our good track record at GCSE”.  

“I would also like to thank all the teachers and support staff at Caldew School for the hard work and commitment that has helped our students be so successful and to parents and carers who have worked with us in supporting their children.”

Miss Howson, Head of Year 11 said “I am incredibly proud of this year group and it has been a privilege to work with them over the last two years. I am looking forward to seeing most of them returning to Caldew School in the Sixth Form. I would like to take this opportunity to wish every single Year 11 student good luck in the future whatever their destination may be, including those who are going to college or onto apprenticeships.
