New Citizenship Award

Congratulations to Imogen in Year 12, the first winner of our new Good Citizen Award.

 

The award has been given to the school by our recently retired and longest serving teacher, Miss Neal.  The popular History teacher, a life-long lover of politics and advocate of good citizenship, especially related to women, has generously donated this magnificent glass trophy to the school.

 

Our first winner gained the award for her outstanding charitable work with Torbay Hospital as Chairman of the Junior League of Friends. 

 

In the words of Mairead McAlinden, Chief Executive of Torbay NHS Trust,  Imogen has, "Grasped the challenge when others stand back, motivated others to participate in the effort, and achieved something that makes a difference, often in challenging circumstances."

 

Well done, Imogen, and many thanks to Miss Neal for her generosity.

Thrilled with our A Level results!

Our A Level results for 2016 once again cement our position as a national leader for A Level provision. Overall, 82% of grades were awarded at A* - B; with 31 students achieving 3 or more A grades and 43 students awarded at least one A* grade.

 

Head of Upper School Mrs Sarah Colombini paid tribute to the approach of the ‘Class of 2016’ saying; “Year 13 were a smashing year group. They managed to successfully combine their academic studies with sport, art, performing and charitable works.”

 

Headteacher Dr Nick Smith commented: “All the hard work was worth it. Our Sixth Form has enabled the girls to achieve the grades they needed to get into the top universities on their preferred courses. We are very proud of them”
