""Lady Lumley’s Year 13 of 2023 deserve our recognition and congratulations. As a year group, they have had a unique experience of education with disruption due to Covid all through Key Stage 4, cancelled GCSE and ongoing peaks of Covid disrupting teaching and learning. There is significant press coverage this year in the depression of A Level grades nationally and the challenges of securing University places. Against this backdrop all our students have succeeded in progressing through two years of advanced study to sit their A Level and Level 3 BTEC exams. They have developed skills and qualities, got stuck into the Duke of Edinburgh awards and formed friendships that will last as well as earning fantastic results. Well done Year 13! What an exciting prospect their future is!’
Fiona Allan,Sixth Form Student Support Manager said she was delighted to see our students receive their results “We have seen each student grow as an individual and they should be proud of both their academic achievements and also the young adults that they have become.”
Alex Carter, Assistant Headteacher, Head of Sixth Form added: "The 2023 Year 13 students at Lady Lumley's can be immensely proud of what have they achieved. Their dedication to their studies and performance when it mattered most have enabled them to shine and reach destinations that will propel them forwards in their careers. I would like to say on behalf of the school and wider community, congratulations! We are all proud of you.”
