| East Sussex students were celebrating GCSE success today with improved results across the county. |
| Average
grades were up on 2018 across the full range of headline measures. And
there was a particularly strong performance in English and Maths where
the proportion of students getting higher grades (9-4) rose from 62 per
cent last year to 64 per cent this year. Cllr Bob Standley, Lead Member for Education and Inclusion, Special Educational Needs and Disability, at East Sussex, said: “It’s wonderful to see achievement rising in East Sussex and it’s a huge credit to the hard work of students and their teachers as well as reflecting the support of their parents and carers. Our congratulations to them all.” |
