Highlights include over 80% of our students achieved 9-4 in English Language and English Literature, with 22% of our students achieving the EBACC at 9-5. We continue to see the impact of our expeditionary learning curriculum on combined higher outcomes with 22% of our students achieving a 9-6 in English language, English literature, Maths, Combined Science and History across the disciplines. We also celebrate some very strong results in some of the chosen subjects with particular praise to those students who achieved strong grades in BTEC Sport, GCSE Geography, Psychology and Japanese.
We must remember that E26 was significantly affected by numerous year group closures during the pandemic, and it is within this context that their achievements should be particularly celebrated.
However, as we continuously say at XP East, academic achievement is only one measure of success.
Through our cross-subject expeditionary curriculum, students have enjoyed an engaging, creative and rich learning experience. This has allowed our students to engage with the world and create beautiful work that really matters and that has made a difference.
Through our learning expeditions our students not only gain the knowledge to pass exams, not just the cultural capital of knowing the world around them, but also the powerful knowledge to positively change the world they will adopt when they leave school – those of you who attended the Climate Conference can testify to this!
