• Clare Mount has fantastic summer exam results

  Wed 06 Sep 2017 L. Evans

  We are delighted to announce that Clare Mount Specialist Sports College Summer results

  are fantastic again!... and still on the up!

  68% of all Year 11 students at Clare Mount achieved at least 5 GCSEs or equivalents this year.

  This is all the more amazing considering that less than 1% of this Year Group achieved a score in their KS2 English and Maths SATs at the end of primary school.

  This figure has been rapidly increasing over the past 5 years: in 2015, it was 38% and last year (2016), it was 59% - which we honestly thought could not be beaten.

  For the third year in a row, 100% of students in Year 11 at Clare Mount achieved at least one GCSE or equivalent qualification.

  We are very proud of all our students including our Sixth Form who also worked hard to increase their grades in English and Maths along with adding vocational qualifications to their many achievements.

  Well done all of you!
