We have loved welcoming back so many students to DHSB this morning to celebrate their GCSE results and to provide advice and guidance on their next steps.

We are absolutely thrilled to announce the exceptional GCSE results achieved by our students this summer! Their hard work, dedication, and resilience have truly paid off, culminating in a fantastic set of achievements that fill us with immense pride.

I would like to convey my sincerest thanks to all of the staff who have worked tirelessly over the years to support our students and I would also like to convey my sincerest thanks to our parents and carers who have provided fantastic support to their children over the years, together with the brilliant efforts of our young people they are celebrating an excellent set of results and most importantly are progressing to their next exciting adventures. 

To all our students we are all extremely proud of what you have achieved. Remember that you are more than a grade. You are all exceptional, inspiring and talented young people, and we couldn’t be prouder of you.

Our staff are here on site today spending the rest of the day with our students to finalise their next steps by enrolling them to our sixth form, finalising apprenticeships or other courses in further education. If you have any questions or are unsure about anything then please, we are on hand to support you.

We wish all our Year 11 students every success with their next steps and we look forward to welcoming many of them back in September.

Good luck!
