She said: “I am so grateful for all the support I have received from teachers and staff at Longdendale High School and am proud to have been Head Girl. I feel the role has really helped towards my achievements and I am delighted with my results."

Head Boy, Logan, was also very proud of his results achieving three 8's, three 7's and three 6's and will join Lottie at Ashton Sixth Form College to study Biology, Chemistry and Computer Science.

Ruby Macmahon, pictured below, received three 9's and five 8's and will now be progressing on to study Law, Biology and Psychology at Ashton Sixth Form College. 

Triple Science, Computer Science, English language, English literature, Health and Social Care, and History saw a marked increase in student attainment, reflecting the high-quality teaching and learning environment fostered at the school.

In addition to these improvements, Longdendale High School maintained a strong track record in subjects such as Art, Business Studies, Sport, and Religious Studies.

Head of School, Andrea Jones, said: "These achievements are a reflection of the hard work and resilience of our students, the dedication of our staff, and the support of our parents and the wider community. We are immensely proud of all our students and their accomplishments. It has been an honour to be with these students this morning to celebrate their results, as I retire from Longdendale after 22 Years. I am confident my successor, Michael Chiles, will continue to build on this success and we look forward to even greater achievements in the future."
