TOP GSCE achievers were honoured in an awards evening at Salendine Nook High School.

Trophies and shields were presented to the highest achievers by Dr Christine Jarvis, Dean of Education at Huddersfield University (pictured front right).

Winners included Oliver Chamberlain, Sarah Elyoussfi and Lucy Martin, who all obtained 10 A*s and 1 A-grade, together with Waseem Sarfraz and Heather Hughes who both achieved seven A*s and four A-grades.

Headteacher Christine Spencer said: “The results of our ex-year 11 speak for themselves.

“They are the best in the school’s history and a real reflection of not just the ability of the young people and their hard work, but also the dedication and professionalism of all the staff and of course the efforts put in by their parents.’’
