The COVID-19 pandemic that took effect in March 2020 meant that no students sat any public examinations in the summer of 2020 because all schools in the UK were partially closed. Students were awarded Centre Assessed Grades by their respective school. No exam results or progress data is being published by schools or by the DfE for 2020.

We are delighted to report a great set of results by our fantastic students, which further secures our ongoing improvement as an academy. We are so proud of this group of young people, who worked with great commitment, making the most of preparation sessions after school and during the holidays. We are also celebrating the commitment of our staff, taking every opportunity to ensure that young people can do well. Congratulations and well done!
For GCSE 61% of students achieved a Grade 4 or higher in both English and maths. 53% achieved a grade 5 or higher in English and 54% in maths.
This year’s results are a pleasing improvement from 2018 and reflect the academy’s positive trajectory of development over time. Performance in the core area of both maths and English is very pleasing. There was strong progress from a range of students across the academy. Particular congratulations go to Ellie Barker (pictured left) who achieved seven grade 9’s and Eric Jackaman who gained six grade 9’s.
Comment by Susan Byles, Regional Education Director for the Trust:
This set of results represents an outstanding achievement by the students at Westbourne Academy. The Principal and staff are to be commended for their dedication, commitment and unwavering drive to get the best possible outcomes for their learners. Together with the Good Ofsted rating achieved by the academy in March, these results confirm the upward journey the academy is on. Congratulations to all of the students. Well done!
