Congratulations: Congratulations to all at Northiam School. The end of year exam results for Year 6 pupils have been published and Northiam school has achieved the highest results for both achievement and rates of progress in the whole of East Sussex. Very well done to pupils and teachers who have been working so hard. Good luck to all the year 6 pupils who will be moving onto secondary school next year.
