Mr Gerard Owens, Headmaster commented “The GCSE results achieved by all the boys in Year 11 at Salesian College are, once again, a great credit to the boys and staff who have worked so hard in partnership together. At a time when grades have been harder to achieve across the board we are very happy to have again maintained excellent results. Parents are naturally delighted and the College is very proud that a year group and individuals who have achieved so well in sport, cultural events and many aspects of school life have now achieved such brilliant GCSE results.
