What's happening at Haberdasher's Askes Hatcham. Why have results dropped so much ?

[Finallyspring]

We have a place at Askes. It used to be very highly thought of but results took huge drop last year and have heard that there are behaviour and staff morale issues. I have heard this has happened as a result of merger with local primary. Does anyone know anything about this ?

The GCSE results have gone up to 80% (including eng and maths, there must have been some regrades as the Lewisham website says 79%!), not as good as two years ago but 10% better than last years and best in Lewisham.

I forgot to add, that their recent Ofsted inspection (Outstanding again) looked into the GCSE result drop and put it down to the first cohort of a fully comprehensive intake, while it was a CTC it was more selective.
