Our Lady of Sion School is proud to announce yet another year of outstanding GCSE results.
When a child is truly known and nurtured, amazing outcomes will be seen.
Headteacher, Steve Jeffery said:
“This is yet another day of celebration here at Sion. Of course, I am bursting with pride. These amazing youngsters have worked so hard, and these results reflect their dedication, tenacity, positive mindset, and intrinsic desire to achieve great outcomes.
They have worked positively with their teachers and monopolised on the loving, caring culture of this school. That mutual respect of the teacher/student relationship means that our young people enjoy the journey, and never stop wanting to get better and better.
“Challenge is good for us all, and these children have risen to challenge time and time again. We thank their parents too for playing their vital roles in encouraging positive mindsets, self-belief, and the desire to achieve. This place never fails to amaze me, and that is because of the community of people it brings together. I am a very proud Headteacher.”
Sion’s students are all going on to further education either at the school’s own Sixth Form Centre (VISion), or another local college.

We are thrilled to announce yet another 100% A Level pass rate at Our Lady of Sion.
Sheer hard work, an inspired love for learning and the opportunity to work alongside outstanding teachers will always lead to monumental outcomes.
Once again, this recipe for success has produced remarkable results for Sion Sixth Form (VISion)
Headteacher, Steve Jeffery states:
“This is a team effort which undoubtedly includes our amazing students, their inspirational teachers, AND our dedicated parents too.
I would like to thank everyone who has been part of today’s success story.
Sion rightfully focuses on effort and actively promotes that all-important intrinsic drive when working with young people.
High grades provide impressive headlines, and it is right to celebrate those.
However, we must never lose sight of the unrelenting effort that achieves those significant “Personal Bests” for every individual.
Those celebrated outcomes will look different for each one of us.
Our students should be walking tall today and so should my staff.
I am a very proud Headteacher.”
Headlines:
The A*/A/B results for these departments are substantially above national “top grade” results.
At Sion, we offer a broad array of A Level options.
Our most recent cohort of students bucked the national trend with 24% of our A Level entries being STEM subjects, and 66% of our A Level entries being Humanities subjects and Social Sciences.
“Their tenacity and sheer hard work has meant that we can celebrate another 100% pass rate this year from our A Level students. This community recognises the significant challenges that young people have had to overcome during these unprecedented times and we applaud every single individual for this outstanding outcome”
