So, the day has finally arrived for our 2025, Year 11 students to collect their GCSE results. 

Whatever the results inside the envelope, we hope our students are incredibly proud of themselves for the hard work and determination they have shown during their GCSE Exams.

We wish each and every one of you the best of luck for the future, we cannot wait to see you all later this year for your GCSE Certificate Presentation evening. 

Below you will find just a few of our outstanding students from this morning.

Please see our end of term edition of the Being Walkden Newsletter below.

This month we have been celebrating women, as a part of Women's History Month. 

This World Book Day we celebrated by hosting our famous Book Choice Café in the Academy Library. Ms Shannon hosted the event as Jane Austin and our Student Librarians made the perfect waiters and waitresses, encouraging students to peruse the book menu whilst listening to soft jazz music and enjoying a croissant in our Parisian-style Bistro set up. 

The café was a huge success and many books were borrowed. 

Elsewhere in the academy, staff got into the spirit of things and dressed as their favourite book characters or series of books. We had Where's Wally, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, The Famous Five, The Wizard of Oz and William Shakespeare.
