As GCSE results flooded in on Thursday morning, parental pride was at an all-time high.
At JCoSS, Maddison Giller, 16, said she was "so happy that all the hard work had work paid off". Her mother, Lisa Giller, revealed: "It has been hideous. I should have bought myself a tranquiliser."
Susan Murphy said she had been more nervous than her son, Jack, saying: "I didn't sleep at all last night."
Deanna Brandon, 16, confessed: "I was shaking this morning on the way to school." Her mother, Mandy Brandon, said "We may have been the guinea pigs at JCoSS, but we haven't felt it. The school has been amazing."
