STUDENTS who completed their GCSEs and other qualifications this year returned to Weydon for the last time as a year group, as they were celebrated at Weydon School’s Annual Presentation Evening.

Weydon School’s ex Year 11 students attended with their parents, members of staff and governors to celebrate their success. Chris Brinsden, progress and achievement leader for this year group, spoke of his pride in leading them through their journey at Weydon culminating in their recent exam success.

This year’s VIP guest was Dr Dan Plant from Imperial College London. Creator of Armourgel. He is currently undertaking his PhD at Imperial College as part of an entrepreneurial scheme. Dr Plant congratulated the ex-Year 11 students as they received their certificates and awards for their success.

In addition to their GCSE certificates, a group of ex-students were awarded prizes for achievement in subjects and school awards. The event was hosted by Reuben Gubb and Izzy Edwards, headboy and headgirl for Castle College.
