2024 GCSE/BTEC Results - Key Stage 4
Students at The Sittingbourne School (TSS) are celebrating today after receiving a range of excellent GCSE and BTEC results. Students in all subjects have achieved highly and are now able to continue their successful learning journeys. Everyone at TSS is very proud of every single Year 11 for what they have achieved this year.
This year we have seen some fantastic GCSE and Vocational results for students across the subjects. We are proud of all of our students who have consistently demonstrated dedication, resilience and hard work; today's results are a testament to their commitment. We wish them every success as they embark on the exciting next chapter of their lives.
As always, none of this would have been possible without the hard work and support of all the wonderful TSS teachers and support staff who work incredibly hard to make sure every child reaches their fullest potential. I would also like to thank all of our students' parents and carers too for their support.NICK SMITH - HEADTEACHER
