There were strong marks across the board for the Year 11s who received their GCSE results after two disrupted years of learning following the pandemic.

Head teacher Craig Yates said: “All the staff at Buxton Community School want to congratulate our Year 11 students on an outstanding performance in their GCSE examinations.

"After a tough two years due to the pandemic we’re so proud of our students and the amazing GCSE results they have achieved. Despite the disruption they faced during the first year of their GCSEs, the students impressed us with their commitment to succeed. We are once again so pleased to be celebrating some outstanding exam results.”
