Following the incredible success of our students and the first GCSE results for Jane Austen College, our extremely proud principal, David Thomas said;

“We are incredibly proud of our students for achieving a wonderful first set of results for Jane Austen College. The headline result of 75% passing English and Maths is one of the best in Norwich, and is well above the national average. Behind that headline are huge individual successes, including 81 Grade 9s. Aside from great exam results they have achieved success in their contribution to the community, their charitable fundraising, the quality of their artwork and performances. We are excited to see what they will achieve in their next steps in life.”
