This year, with over 60% of grades being at grade 4 or above, and nearly 40% of grades being at grade 5 and above, students at Leigh Academy Hundred of Hoo are celebrating the result of their hard work and diligence at GCSE. As a proudly inclusive academy, we are delighted to share that students who have an SEN, or who are disadvantaged, have achieved their best-ever set of results – this is an established trend of year-on-year improvements at Hundred of Hoo..
Reflecting on this significant achievement, Principal, Carl Guerin-Hassett paid tribute to the hard work of the year 11 cohort, and the determination and dedication of the academy’s teaching and pastoral community:
“We work tirelessly to remove barriers to success and learning for our students, and central to this strategy is our College system, within which college leaders have an exceptional understanding of children and families, ensuring that our support strategies are proactive and lines of communication highly effective. Our College teams have worked relentlessly to support families, to provide resources and encourage our students to be the very best they can.
“We are proud of all our year 11s and their amazing achievements, and wish them the very best for their next steps, which for many of them will be here with us at Hoo.”
