“Our results are slightly up but not by as much as we had hoped. We are very disappointed about what the government has done with the English results.

“I am privileged to lead this school – the staff are exemplary and the staff and the students are so on-side. In the past four years we have made significant changes which have been outstanding.” – principal Victoria Musgrave.
