Commenting on the city’s GCSE results today, Stephen Morgan MP, Member of Parliament for Portsmouth South, said:
“I’d like to congratulate every single young person in Portsmouth collecting their GCSE results today. Every student in our city has the right to quality education and it is so important that we give our young people the best chance of reaching their potential.
Growing up in Portsmouth I learnt that if you aim high and work hard, you will achieve. It’s great to hear so many success stories of young people doing just that across Portsmouth schools today.
I would also like to thank all the headteachers and their teams whose hard work in difficult times is paying off. Today’s results are testament to their drive to ensure that every young person in our city has the best start in life.”
