Following the obvious disruption over the past few years, we are really proud of how successful the students at the Royal Harbour Academy have been in their exams this year. Our English Department had 48% of their students receive a Level 4 grade or better, while 39% of students secured a Level 4 grade or above in maths.
Many students have had outstanding success, but there were a number of exceptional performances. Including:
