Best ever GCSE results for Dartmouth Academy! Dartmouth Academy saw excellent GCSE results achieved by pupils this summer. Rising to the high expectations and rigour of the examinations, pupils’ attainment has increased from the previous cohort for core subjects: those achieving a grade 4 or above in English has risen to 66% and to 60% in Maths. The government has been making GCSE exams harder, so the
performances of high-flying individuals are even more impressive. Pupils with notable attainment, achieving grades 7-9 in the majority of their subjects, include Samuel Clark, Izak Hemmings, Troy Bradbury, Josh Knight, Abby Peeke and Rhianna Mold.
A key performance indicator for schools is the progress made by each pupil. Once the national data is known it is clear that pupils at Dartmouth Academy will have achieved well above the national average. Truly exceptional performances have been seen by George Clarke, Kyle Woodward, India Palmer, Eloise Green, Louie Willicott, Abigail Lees, Leah Paddon and Caleb Hobson.
Tina Graham, Principal of Dartmouth Academy, said that she “is
incredibly proud of all the pupils, staff and parents who have worked together in order to achieve these results. We are delighted with the choices that pupils have made regarding their future study. In a truly comprehensive and inclusive school it is beyond reward to see such a significant proportion of pupils aspiring to, and achieving being, their best selves.”
This year, two pupils were
offered places at Exeter Maths School and all pupils are looking forward to either their A Level studies at a variety of local schools and colleges, vocational courses
or apprenticeships secured in the local community. This follows fantastic news regarding the success of previous Dartmouth Academy pupils who have just achieved their A Level grades at Kingsbridge Community College. Jonah Hughes’ consistent hard work paid off with him earning 3 A* grades. Other pupils including Adam Callard, Katie Stevens, Georgia Hammoudeh-Webb, Ralph Ryder and Freya Bradley have achieved exceptional results and are looking forward to a wide range of university and employment opportunities ahead. We wish all of the present and past pupils of Dartmouth Academy the very best for the future.
Careers and year 11 progression What a great day with year 10 at Plymouth University. We toured the university, spoke with students and participated in an interactive lecture as well as a PhotFit ICT exercise. It really opened up the future for so many of our pupils
Nepal Expedition Returns
to England Jordan, Eloise,the KCC Expedition team, Lorwyn and Mr Canning arrived back safely from their trip to Nepal
recently.The expedition was split into three significant parts: 1) Project – the pupils lived and worked in a secondary school in Nagarkot in the Kathmandu Valley - the Shree Chunadevi School. Here they were tasked with clearing mud and brick from a playground that had been subject to a devastating mud slide following an earthquake. It was hard labour but extremely rewarding. 2) Trek - they hiked 5 days in the foothills of the Annapurna base camp trail. It was monsoon season and the weather made it pretty tough at times. 3) R&R - The team created an itinerary to visit as many religious and cultural sights as possible. Congratulations to all involved on this huge achievement.
