Students have achieved another strong set of GCSE results.

Celebrating the achievements are pupils at Marshland High School in West Walton, who performed particularly well in English and maths, with high levels of attainment across science, art, photography, and food technology.

Headteacher Craig Jansen said: "We are immensely proud of our students.

"To see such strong performances across both core and creative subjects highlights the vibrant, well-rounded education we strive to provide at Marshland High School.
