Harris Boys’ Academy East Dulwich’s principal says he is looking forward to seeing as many of his year eleven students at the sixth form next term after they achieved a fantastic set of results.
“We are delighted for our Year 11 today. After a tumultuous year, they have all shown real commitment and resilience to achieve these results and should be proud of what they’ve achieved,” Peter Groves said.
Individual success stories he highlighted included Abid Ahmed, who achieved six 9’s, two 8’s and two distinction*; Anson Nguyen Dac, who has achieved seven 9’s, two 8’s and two distinction*, and Syed Ahmed, who achieved five 9’s, four 8’s and one distinction*.
He also wanted to share the achievements of Cristobal Cortes Henao and Justin Ponce-Lascano.
Cristobal received two distinctions, one 9, two 6s, four 5s and one 4. Justin received a 5 in maths and a 4 in English literature and language as well as a pass in all his other subjects.
Both had joined the academy in year nine and at the time spoke little English but their hard work has paid off with impressive results.
Mr Groves added: “Congratulations to Abid, Anson and Syed – not only for their excellent grades today but also for the impressive way in which all three of them have conducted themselves during their time at the academy.
“Their results are well deserved, and we look forward to seeing what the future holds for them.”
