GIRLS at Luckley House School celebrated a very good round of GCSE results, with 93 per cent of them achieving the old benchmark of 5 A*-C passes including English and maths.

Of the candidates at the school, 68 per cent achieved A*-B and 28 per cent secured A*-A grades.

Individual successes included Amanda Bailey, who notched up eight A*s and three As.

Her mum Debbie said: "I feel absolutely euphoric and so proud. I can’t thank the teachers at Luckley enough for working so hard to ensure that Amanda reached her full potential."

The Latin students were particularly thrilled with a clean sweep of A*-A results.

Head Jane Tudor said: "These results are outstanding and testament to the hard work of pupils and staff alike, showing Luckley House School to be a school in which pupils flourish and achieve far beyond expectation."
