Class of 2009 Graduation "Following our record 65% A*-C grades at GCSE level we recently held a graduation ceremony for the class of 2009 on the 22nd of October. Ex Year 11 pupils were presented with their GCSE certificates by our special guest, former British and European Lightweight champion boxer, John Thaxton. The parents and former pupils were treated to a motivating and uplifting insight into the boxers life and road to success during the evening.
