Statement
We are very pleased to announce our A-Level and Applied Level 3 results for 2022, with all students gaining 3 or more qualifications and over 50% gaining A*-B or equivalent. This is a fantastic achievement for all our students who have coped with significant disruption to their studies resulting from the pandemic. This year’s cohort of students are the first to sit public examinations since 2019 after different arrangements were put in place in 2020 and 2021, and students have missed significant chunks of their schooling in Year 11 and 12. Results have been widely expected to drop nationally this year, but at Sutton Community Academy we have seen continued improvement which is a testament to the hard work and dedication of both the students and staff.

Richard Fegan, Vice Principal said: “Given the worrying stories we have read in the national press, it’s fantastic to see all of our students achieving their goals. They have all managed to get into their first choices, be that university, college, apprenticeships or employment… and we couldn’t be prouder!”
Garry Trott, Director of Education for the Academy Transformation Trust also commented on the results: “Congratulations to the students and staff at Sutton Community Academy, who have achieved some great results and overcome the significant challenges posed by the pandemic. These results have given a solid foundation for future study and employment. This set of pleasing outcomes build further on the academy’s successful Ofsted inspection in April.”
