She said: “A staggering 71.3 per cent of girls achieved five A* to C grades including English and maths which shows incredible success in the core subjects.
“And 79 per cent of girls achieved five A*-C grades across all subjects.
“Overall, 35 per cent of all the GCSE grades were either A* or A, with fantastic results in Maths, ICT and the triple sciences.”
