A spokesperson for Hinchingbrooke School said the pupils should be congratulated on their resilience and hard work in the run-up to the examinations, "which has clearly paid dividends despite the change to the results nationally".
More than 10 per cent of the cohort attained an average grade of at least an 8 in their 10 or 11 qualifications, which was described as a "fabulous achievement".
