We are delighted to welcome Cottingham Croxby Primary School to The Consortium Academy Trust. Head of School Dave Waterson said 'Croxby Primary is delighted to have joined The Consortium Trust. Working together as part of the Trust will ensure we deliver inspirational teaching and learning practices, which will make a real difference to our children's lives. Croxby has benefitted from working alongside the Trust for over 6 months prior to joining. The school knows it is joining an organisation which strives for excellence and ensures every individual has the opportunity to reach their potential.' Director of Academy Improvement Sarah Young said 'Having worked with Croxby pupils, staff and wider community over the last 8 months we are delighted with the progress the school has made following the challenge left to us by Ofsted when they visited in December 2016. The progress of children and their enjoyment of the wider offer of the school is really at the heart of TCAT's Vision and Values. We are excited that the school have joined the Trust and we can continue to work together for even greater success in the future.'

Well done to all of our students, who after so much hard work, received their results today. Headteacher Mr McCready said ‘Despite the huge changes to examinations at Key Stage 4, we are very pleased with these results, which reflect the hard work put in by students and staff alike.’ Particular success stories include Jiayuan Feng who achieved one A and an amazing A* / 9 in everything else. He said ‘I was hoping for a mix of As and A*s so I’ve done better than I’d hoped, I’ll settle for that. I am staying on at Wolfreton for sixth form as the teachers know me and I know them, I feel very comfortable speaking to them. I’m going to study A levels in Maths, Physics, Chemistry, Japanese and IT.’

Students are celebrating exam success today after all their hard work. Headteacher Mr McCready said: ‘We are delighted with these results, especially considering the new specifications and the uncertainty around grade boundaries. The overall average grade per entry has increased from 2016 and we have a 99% pass rate, as well as a 10% increase in students achieving A*-B or equivalent grades.’

Particular success stories included Sara Sabha who achieved achieved A* in Geography, A in History, A in French and A* in the Extended Project Qualification. She is going to Oxford University - to Pembroke College to study European and Middle Eastern Languages. Sara said ‘I’m so pleased, Oxford is my dream university and  I can’t believe I’m going there, it’s just started to sink in. I’ve had the best teachers ever, I couldn’t have done it without them but I guess you’ve just got to believe in yourself. My mum is so proud! I’ve now got six French books to read before the start of term so I’d better get started!’

Hessle Sixth Form students are celebrating today as they receive their A Level results. Students have
