TRURO High School for Girls is celebrating its highest GCSE results since the pandemic, with more than 70 per cent of grades awarded at Grade 6 or above.

The results represent a tremendous achievement for the Year 11 cohort, with girls celebrating everything from an outstanding ten Grade 9s to grades that have surpassed predictions and personal milestones reflecting extraordinary determination and resilience.

The celebrations extend well beyond academic results. Truro High girls have also excelled in their passions and interests outside the classroom, with achievements including a gold medal in GB Archery, a leading role in a drama performance, LAMDA Distinctions and top grades in music examinations.

New headteacher Nicola Dudley, said: “We are absolutely delighted with this year’s GCSE results and incredibly proud of every one of our girls. These are our strongest GCSE results since the pandemic and are a wonderful reflection of the commitment, determination and resilience of this year group.”

“We look forward to welcoming a significant number of our Year 11 girls into our Truro High sixth form. They will be able to pursue their favourite subjects at A Level, with many also undertaking an EPQ alongside their studies; but our Sixth Form offers so much more than academic qualifications.

“Our girls will have the opportunity to take part in the Leiths Confident Cookery Course, complete a TEFL course, undertake Lifeguarding qualifications and benefit from our Future Ready and university application programmes - plus all our sporting, creative and performing arts opportunities. We want every girl to leave Truro High with the qualifications, confidence, independence and real-world skills to take on whatever comes next.”
