Exam Results 2020/21
GCSE Exams
John Port Spencer Academy Staff and students are celebrating outstanding GCSE results this year. We would like to congratulate all our students who have remained focussed and shown true resilience throughout the past 2 years. More than 20 of our Year 11 students achieved an average grade of 8. We are proud of the achievements of our young people both in and outside the classroom, but value the importance of exceptional results to ensure our students can follow the pathway they desire on leaving John Port.
Sixth Form Exams
We are delighted with the results that our students have achieved despite the many challenges that they have faced. All students have worked incredibly hard and have shown exceptional levels of resilience and dedication. Twelve students secured at least three A* grades each. We are proud that our students are able to progress to their chosen courses and destinations, including degree apprenticeships, university courses and the world of work and we wish them every success in the future.
