Congratulations to all students for an outstanding set of examination results. Both at GCSE and at sixth form, RGS was listed in the national press as one of the leading schools in the country, in many cases outperforming leading independent schools.
Here are just some of the headline figures:
International Baccalaureate
· The first cohort achieved an average of 35 IB points – equivalent to 4.5 grades As at A level! Four of the students took up places at Oxbridge.
A level
· 82% of top grades (A/B), with 45% of grade As!
· Twenty four students attained more than three grade As and two students joined Oxbridge colleges in October.
GCSE
· 100% of students passed 5+ GCSE at A*-C (including English and mathematics)
· 62.5% achieved the top grades A*/A
· The average capped grade score (the top 8 subjects) per student was equivalent to 8 grade As!
Success for ALL students
Beneath the headline figures for top grades, and equally important, is the success of students in achieving their own personal targets and succeeding in subjects that they might not have found ‘easy’. Well done to all students, and for those off to university, best wishes from all of the staff at RGS.
