Among those enjoying their success is Deputy Head Girl, Claire Z, who will be combining her creative and science skills after successfully securing a place at Cambridge University to study Architecture, with three A*s in Art and Design, Mathematics and Physics.

Head of the Sixth Form, Mrs Danielle Solly, said:

“The results are fantastic and are a result of the hard work, commitment and determination of the students and staff at the school. I am delighted that so many students have been able to obtain a place at the universities of their choice and the wide range of courses our students are going on to study shows the wide range of skills and interests that the girls have developed during their time at the School. We are very proud of what they have achieved.”
