SCHOOL leavers are taking their next step in education after collecting their GCSE results from the Derby High School in Bury.

Last month, dozens of 16-year-olds opened those magic envelopes at the school in Radcliffe Road, and there were plenty of success stories.

Among them were Vanda Palace and Safia Khan, who amassed more than 20 grades at A or above between them.

Head teacher Helen Hubert said: “The girls were dedicated students who worked exceptionally hard and thoroughly deserve these outstanding results.”

Overall, 58 per cent of students gaining at least five Cs in English and maths, compared with 51 per cent last year.

Mrs Hubert added: “We are proud of the achievements of all our students.

“They aim high and work hard and are extremely well supported by a team of talented and dedicated staff.

“Our students leave us with qualifications, skills and experiences that will give them a positive start to the next stage of their education.”
