Rebecca Barber, Senior Leader for Post 16 at Magnus Church of England Academy said, “I am incredibly proud of another amazing cohort of students who have focused and worked hard throughout their time in Sixth Form to achieve their personal best. I am always incredibly thankful for the supportive staff who go above and beyond for our students both in and out of the classroom to ensure our young people progress to their chosen destination.
"Again, we have an increase in students applying and taking university and apprenticeship places and it is a real joy to see our young people moving on to a career path of their choice.”
Chris Moodie is the Chief Executive Officer of Diocese of Southwell & Nottingham Multi-Academy Trust (SNMAT) and he said “I am very proud of the outcomes this year at Magnus Church of England Academy. Staff and students have worked exceptionally hard together to achieve these results. It is, however, more than just a sheet of paper that defines an education. We are delighted that Ofsted have recognised that the whole curriculum is important. Magnus Academy has known this for many years, and this means that the quality of education enjoyed by all students is very high.”
