One year 11 student at St Thomas the Apostle School received “outstanding results” today, writes Matt Pearce…
Omafuvwe Udu, pictured above, secured a clean sweep of top 9 grades in all his subjects at the Peckham school.
Omafuvwe, who joined the school as a Year 7 student, said of his grades: “The work paid off! My delight in my results is immeasurable, and I think my teachers for it all.
“Although I did put the work in to achieve my grades, I wouldn’t have been able to revise so effectively without all the support from my teachers every step of the way. I look forward to studying at STAC Sixth Form and am excited about joining the Oxbridge programme!”
Other students also posted good results. 88 per cent of the class of 2022 recorded grades 9-4 in English and Maths, while 76 per cent of students achieved a strong pass of 9-5 in English in Maths.
Headteacher Eamon Connolly said: “This group of students have shown themselves to be hard working and focused right from the beginning of their studies at St Thomas the Apostle School.
“In addition to their studies, this year group have shown themselves to be leaders and have fully embraced everything the school has to offer. I am exceptionally proud of their results, and wish them every success as they embark on their sixth form studies.”
Students in ten subjects celebrated a 100 per cent pass rate of 9-4, including Combined and Triple Science, Music and French.
In English, a third of students achieved top grades of 7 or above and in Maths nearly half.
