Outstanding Ofsted judgment followed by best ever GCSE and A Level results at Seaford Head School.
Students at Seaford Head School are once again celebrating as today’s exceptional GCSE results follow on from the outstanding A Level results that were announced last week. Bob Ellis, the Headteacher, commented, “Our Year 11 and Year 13 students have made it a very special year for Seaford Head School. To follow up on this year’s outstanding Ofsted judgment with our best ever GCSE and A Level results is a fantastic achievement. I am so proud of this group of young people and the wider school community. Their education was disrupted by a global pandemic but they have achieved amazing outcomes that will have a significant impact on their future life-chances. With over 95% of students achieving 5 GCSEs all our students should feel extremely proud of themselves.”
19 students secured 10 GCSEs at grades at 7 – 9 including George Millington and Alice Lee. Other top achievers at the school included Matilda Poole (10 grade 9s), Noah Hoch (9 grade 9s),
Nina Blackwell-Ryan (9 grade 9s) and Herbert Mandeville, Amy Martin and Erik Rennie (7 grade 9s).
Mr Dean Hooker, the Assistant Headteacher who leads on the curriculum and Key Stage 4 academic outcomes commented “It was wonderful to see our students collect their results this morning as they have really excelled. As a school, we consistently achieve outstanding results but to see the proportion of students who have secured the strong Ebacc qualification almost doubling is absolutely staggering. This will open up so many exciting opportunities for our young people in the future.”
Ahmad Khalil who achieved top grades across all subjects and will be studying Maths, Physics and Biology in the Seaford Head School Sixth Form said, “I want to go on to take an Aerospace Engineering degree at university in the future and I know that the school will help me achieve this ambition. Whenever I secured a 6 in my GCSE assessments, my teachers were always pushing me and showing me how to secure a higher grade. That is why students at Seaford Head do so well”.
Students at Seaford Head School were celebrating outstanding A level results on Thursday morning. The school was delighted to learn that this set of results are even better than last year’s record-breaking outcomes. Over 35% of the A-Levels secured were at the highest A*/ A grade. Mrs Alvarez, the Assistant Headteacher who leads the Sixth Form commented, “These results reflect the students’ immense hard work, focus and determination to achieve the best possible grades to ensure they go on and fulfil their life goals and ambitions. These outstanding outcomes are testament to the 7 years of effort our students have put into their studies and the tireless support they have received from our amazing staff.”
Olivia Lee secured 4 A* grades in Biology, Chemistry, Maths and Physics. Olivia also completed the Extended Project Qualification and secured a top grade. Olivia will now be studying at the Royal Veterinary College London. Harvey Jenkins also secured a perfect set of results with A* grades in Maths, Further Maths and Physics. Harvey has secured a prestigious engineering degree apprenticeship with Dyson. Harvey said “I have loved my time at Seaford Head and I am really grateful for how the school has supported me. I can’t wait to start my engineering degree with Dyson; it is an amazing opportunity for me.”
Other top performers in the A-Level subjects from the school include: Madelyn Bartlett (A*, A*, A) Georgia Hannay (A*, A*, A, A), Hetty Hughes (A*,A*, A) Huw O’Shea (A*, A, A), Cameron Storey (A*,A,A) and Hayden Roberts (A*, A*, B) who will be starting the autumn term at Worcester College, Oxford University where he will be reading Psychology.

Bob Ellis the school’s Headteacher commented, “I am immensely proud of all our students. Every year as results continue to soar, I struggle to find the words to describe how impressed I am by our young people. This is the best ever cohort of Year 13s to leave the school, supported by the greatest ever group of staff. Their outstanding results are fully deserved.”
