Open Academy pupils get best-ever results
 Pupils at the new Open Academy in Norwich have posted their best-ever exam results by doubling the school's GCSE results in just one year.
Students at the Open Academy on Marryat Road in north-east Norwich, which only opened for business last September, posted all-time record results for the former Heartsease High School.
The percentage of pupils gaining the benchmark five or more A*-C grades including English and maths surged from 16pc to 31.25pc, while the proportion getting five A*-Cs in any subjects improved from 38pc to 47pc.
Vice-principal Cameron Phillips said: “This is down to the hard work of the students and staff and the support of the parents. We are absolutely delighted.”
The academy, is sponsored by Christian businessman Graham Dacre and the Bishop of Norwich, the Rt Rev Graham James.
