Well done and thank you to all our performers who contributed to last night’s wonderful Primary Tea Time Concert. Our series of Primary Tea Time Concerts provide an opportunity for our Primary pupils to showcase all the hard work they are doing in lessons and at home. It was fantastic to see so many pupils perform for the first time and how our older pupils are flourishing with their chosen instrument.

In a resounding celebration of academic excellence, Derby High School is thrilled to announce the success of Year 11 students in this year`s GCSE examinations, with two thirds of entries awarded at the top grades 7-9 and 25% achieving grade 9.

The achievements of our Year 11 students extend beyond the examination hall. They have embraced the school values, embodying not only academic excellence but also compassion, leadership, and a commitment to making a positive impact on the world. These qualities will undoubtedly serve them well as they continue their educational journey and eventually become the leaders of tomorrow.

Head, Amy Chapman, expressed her immense pride in the students` achievements, saying, "These outstanding results are a testament to the unwavering dedication, intellectual curiosity, and resilience of our students. It is a joy to witness their growth and development, and we have every confidence that they will go on to achieve even greater things in the future."
