Statement
It was smiles all around at Sutton Community Academy as doors opened for students to collect their GCSE results! Across the board, students have achieved an outstanding set of results, and most have achieved the grades they needed for their next steps, be that further education, apprenticeships and employment – including a record number of students opting to continue on to 6th form.
Students collecting their results
At the top end, 10 students (9%) gained at least one grade 9, placing them in the top few percent of students nationwide, with one student gaining a whopping 6 grade 9s.
This is another fantastic achievement for the young people of Sutton Community Academy who have coped with significant disruption to their studies resulting from the pandemic, a new leadership team in January 2021, and many individuals overcoming their own personal barriers. This year’s cohort of students are the first to sit public examinations since 2019, making the continued improvements in results all the more impressive, and a testament to the hard work and dedication of both the students and staff.

Patrick Butterell, Principal said: “We are so proud of our students who have demonstrated incredible determination, resilience and positivity. A lovely year group who we wish all the best going forward.”
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 another set of great results and overcome the significant challenges posed by the pandemic. These results ensure students have a solid foundation for future study and employment; and justify the Academy’s successful Ofsted inspection in April.”
