Students at a Sandbach school have been praised for their "resilience" and "hard work" after receiving their GCSE and Level 2 qualifications today (Thursday).

The headteacher, governors and staff at Sandbach School in Crewe Road thanked students and wished them the best on their educational journey.

"We are incredibly proud of the hard work resilience and focus shown by our Year 11 cohort in the face of both the normal challenges of GCSE and Level 2 study as well as the additional challenges they have faced over the course of the pandemic," said Headteacher, Sarah Burns.

"We are exceptionally thankful for the support shown to the students and the school by their families and the school community."  

Mrs Burns said the school saw some exceptional individual educational achievements.
