Students at Brownhills Ormiston Academy in Walsall are celebrating today after receiving their GCSE and Vocational Qualification results, as they get ready to take their next steps in their education journey.

Staff and students have come together to mark the achievements of all the students, who have worked exceptionally hard over the past couple of years to secure these grades.

Some particular individual highlights include:

  • Ben Allen who achieved seven qualifications at either Grade 8 or 9 including Mathematics, Separate Sciences, PE and Sociology. He is planning on studying Biology, Chemistry and Mathematics A Levels with a view to studying Zoology or Medical Research in the future.
  • Alex Hogg and Megan Harman also achieved four qualifications at least Grade 8 or 9, and are currently planning to pursue careers in Music and Law.
  • The academy’s students are moving on to a wide range of further education studies ranging from scientific study, law, health services, performing arts, engineering and other practical vocations.
  • A number of students have made exceptional progress on their journey at Brownhills Ormiston Academy, with Seb Taylor and Emily Dooley achieving grades well above their initial predictions.

Helen Keenan, Principal at Brownhills Ormiston Academy, said:

“I would like to congratulate the students from my final Year 11 cohort at the academy on their well-earned achievements; their success comes from a lot of dedication and commitment from students, staff and parents. I am very proud of the way the students have conducted themselves throughout the year and dealt with the pressures of real exams after a gap of two years.

“As I leave the academy after sixteen years as Principal, I hand the baton of leadership to the new Principal, Mrs Lloyd. I am confident that she will build on the success of this year’s exam results and ensure that the academy goes from strength to strength in the future.

“I would like to thank the entire school community and Ormiston Academies Trust for their continued support, and look forward to seeing our students progress on to the next stage of their education.”
