Exam Results and CAGs T
he cancellation of exams in summer 2020 presented teachers and pupils with unforeseen challenges including the introduction of Centre Assessed Grades.
Our pupils should be exceptionally proud of everything they achieved in the 2019-2020 academic year, including their ability to respond to the challenges of remote learning. We were overwhelmed by their maturity, resilience and wholehearted commitment during what was an unusual academic year. A special mention goes to our Upper Sixth pupils, who left St Peter’s without the usual end of year celebrations. As a year group, they fully embraced their time at school and we are delighted by everything they have contributed and achieved. They approached a difficult situation with energy and optimism, regarding challenges as an opportunity to develop valuable life skills and prepare for life after St Peter’s.
