CONGRATULATIONS TO THE CLASS OF 2022!

At Chichester High School, we are delighted that the efforts of our students and staff have been rewarded by a set of impressive GCSE results.

Despite the challenges faced over the last two years, our students persevered, remained steadfast and focused in their pursuit of good grades and in pursuing their dreams.

It has been an absolute pleasure to work with these students; they are all super young people, being kind, caring, and confident individuals.

Mrs McKeown, Headteacher, said “I would like to thank our incredible staff for their hard work and exceptional pastoral care and to our committed parents, and carers, for their unwavering support. Finally, and more importantly, thank you to our Year 11 students for their hard work.”

This cohort began their GCSE’s after lockdown 1, were sent home as a year group in their autumn term and, showed their and resilience during lockdown 2 and through the many other COVID related disruptions since then.

In spite of these challenges, this year group has continued to make progress at CHS. Their English and Maths grades beat those of 2019 and, their commitment to ensuring their success in every subject has been our best results in the Arts, Humanities, PE, and vocational courses.
