"We are today celebrating a positive set of GCSE results and this can only be attributed to the resilience, tenacity, cheerfulness and high spirits of a special group of students.
The results achieved by students today and the strong A level results last week finish off a successful year for the school, in the most difficult of circumstances.
As ever, I want to thank the staff, parents and the wider school community who have supported us throughout this year."
Chair of governors, Jo Banks said "The students receiving results this week have shown great resilience and the hard work that has gone into achieving their results must be recognised and celebrated. Newtown High School’s results show clear and strong improvement over those returned the last time students sat formal examinations. More students are achieving at all levels and this gives us confidence for the future. As a school we remain committed to our ongoing journey of improvement, helping all our pupils achieve their potential."
