<description><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-size: 13px;">In the unlikely event that we have snow on the day of an exam, it is important for students to come to college in time for the start of the exam UNLESS they have been personally contacted by a member of staff from Henry Cort Community College.&nbsp;</span></p><p>It is very unlikely the college will close unless there is a large deluge, in this case the normal procedure will be employed where by a notice will be placed on the college website, emails will be sent and local radio stations will be contacted. &nbsp;</p>]]></description>

<title>Henry Cort Students celebrate amazing GCSE English re-take results</title>
<link>http://www.henry-cort.hants.sch.uk/news/default.asp?storyID=273</link>
<description><![CDATA[<p><b>For some local students, Christmas has arrived a few days early...</b></p><p>Twent-five&nbsp;former students were amongst almost 50,000 young people in the country who re-took their English GCSEs in November after a row about grades this summer. Today Phil Munday, Principal announced that every single student who re-took the examination increased their grade to a C. This is an incredible result and highlights the absurdity of the English results, taking the number of students achieving grades A* - C in English GCSE at The Henry Cort Community College from 48 per cent reported in August to 65 per cent today.</p>]]></description>
