STUDENTS are celebrating an impressive set of results.

The Grange Academy in Runcorn reported significant improvements across a wide range of subjects, including higher pass rates in English and maths, and strong performance in sciences, humanities, and modern foreign languages.

Individual students also achieved standout results, with several earning top grades across multiple subjects.

Jamie Jardine, executive principal at The Grange Academy, said: "I am delighted with the achievements and successes of our Year 11 cohort this year.

"It is another year of improvements for our students.

"This year group has shown resilience and a strong work ethic that will help to prepare them for future success.

"I wish each and every student the best of luck as they continue their education and I look forward to hearing about their future successes and achievements."

Students who achieved particularly strong results included Mia D, Jacob B, Rylee H, Eni O, Oliver T, Logan F, Olly F, Jaimee C and Jess C.

Mia D earned grade 8s in English language, English literature, trilogy science and geography, along with a grade 7 in maths and Spanish, and a Level 2 Distinction* in IT.

She will go on to study video game design at St Helens College.

Jacob B also recorded high grades, earning grade 8s in English language, maths and physics, grade 7s in history and biology, and a Level 2 Distinction* in sports science.

He will continue his studies at Carmel Sixth Form College.

Mr Jardine said: "We have had an excellent year in all phases.

"Primary data is continuing to improve; the results we have seen across the school do not happen by chance.

"The continued increase in results is due to the hard work and determination of students, staff and also because of the support received from our parents and the local community.

"I am confident we will continue to see The Grange Academy go from strength to strength."

The school has seen improvements in most subject areas, giving students more opportunities for further education and training.

Progress was also noted in foundation subjects including music, child development and sports science.
