Students from the Voyage Learning Campus in Weston gained some impressive results this year.
North Somerset Council’s pupil referral unit supports students who have significant medical needs or have been excluded from mainstream schools.
Emma Gundry, principal of the Voyage Learning Campus, said she is delighted with the results achieved by pupils.
She said: “Despite many challenges, students have worked hard to gain impressive results across a range of subjects from the core of English and maths to subjects such as home cooking, motor vehicle and citizenship.
“All students achieved qualifications across these subjects, with 83 per cent of students gaining both maths and English GCSEs, a number of those students gaining grade 4 or above.”
