Matthew Shoults, headmaster at NHEHS said: “These results are testament to the industry and energy shown by our students, and the enthusiasm and support from their teachers.”
He added: “In the face of much negative press rhetoric about the challenges facing this cohort nationally because of the Covid period, they have been undaunted in their ambitions. It is inspiring to see the wide range and destinations of courses they will be pursuing in the years ahead.”
Head Girl, Charlotte Pons, who will going to the University of Bristol to read Engineering Design with study in industry said: “I’m so grateful for the support I’ve received from NHEHS. All the teachers have believed in me, given me support and extra sessions, and helped me grow in confidence to get this result today. I am relieved to have got into my first choice of university and excited about the next phase of my education.”
Charlotte added: “The school helped me find the course – it’s tailored for me and absolutely perfect. I’ll be sad to leave NHEHS though – it’s a lovely supportive community and I’ll keep in touch with classmates and teachers.”
