PLEASE SHARE! STAFF AND STUDENTS AT THE EBBSFLEET ACADEMY CELEBRATE EXCELLENT GCSE RESULTS The Ebbsfleet Academy is pleased to announce that students received the best ever GCSE results in the history of the academy. 72% of students achieved a grade 4 and above in maths and 80% in English. Students are also celebrating the best ever results in Spanish with 65% achieving a grade 4 and above, with 30% attaining a grade 7 and above. Overall results show an increase on last year's and continue to demonstrate the academy's trajectory of improvement. Crystal Cardnell, Vice Principal for The Ebbsfleet Academy said: "These are excellent results and they reflect the hard work of all the students, teachers and supportive parents. Our academy is going from strength to strength and today it's been a privilege to see the results our students have achieved and the significant progress many of them have made since joining us. We are looking forward to seeing many of them return to us in September to join our Sixth Form." The students' success is primarily a reflection of their resilience, commitment and hard work. Behind this, lies the support of our parent community and a hard working team of outstanding teachers. In addition to an overall trend of improvement, there have been some phenomenal individual performances: • Bart Gradzki, Christian Ayorinde and George Provan who secured all their qualifications at a grade 8 or 9, the equivalent of achieving only A*or higher. • Luke Thatcher, Anthony Griggs, Tobi Nurudeen and Callum Tyler whose results are all grade 6 or above. Alison Colwell, Principal of The Ebbsfleet Academy concludes: "As I leave the school after seven wonderful years, I just want to reiterate how incredibly proud I am of these results and indeed of the school we have built. Success comes down to leadership, and I have had the most wonderful senior team working with me, as well as so many strong and capable subject leaders and Heads of House, all of whose fingerprints are on this summer's results."

Ten very lucky Year 9 students went to Canterbury Christ Church University this term to gain some insight into careers in medicine. They had the opportunity to meet numerous surgeons from a range of disciplines including ophthalmology, cardiology and neurology and took part in CPR, A&E diagnostic and practised keyhole surgery in workshops. A great time had by all - including Mr Taylor!

Amongst the companies in attendance were the BBC, British Airways, KPMG and The Independent.

Hannah, Paige and Tilly have been working closely with Claire Bennett from the Dame Kelly Holmes Trust this year to develop their leadership skills and confidence on the AQA Unlocking Potential Programme. They have worked incredibly hard to put together a social action project to raise awareness and funds for Young Minds in school. Yesterday was the celebration event which was the culmination of all their hard work - we are very proud of them and how far they have come this year!
