Bristol Grammar School

CLOSE to half of all GCSE gradesachieved at Bristol Grammar Schoolwere A*s, continuing a trend of highperformance. Some 77 students – t wothirds of the entire year group –

achieved eight or more A* or A grades whilst18 of them secured at least ten straight A*s, orb e t t e r.

A group of ten students achieved the addeddistinction of scoring 100 per cent overall inone of their GCSEs.

There was strong performance across the 27different GCSE subjects offered at BGS, in-cluding STEM subjects – where over 90 ofgrades in biology, chemistry, physics, math-ematics and design technology were between

A* to B - and the arts, where drama, dance andmusic all enjoyed 100 per cent A* to B per-formance. Performance in the exam hall hasbeen combined with impressive levels ofco-curricular achievement in sport, dramaand music, some of which has been at nationals t a n d a rd .

The school’s headmaster Roderick MacKin-non said: “There is no doubt these results areexceptional and I am delighted for our youngpeople who have worked so hard to achievethem. There is also a pleasing consistency,year on year, in the standards our studentsattain and this goes against the commonlyrehearsed suggestion that the ability of stu-dents to achieve the top grades is declining.”

Clifton High School

AFTER an excellent set of A-levels,Clifton High School followed suit byposting great GCSE results. It was itsfirst set of GCSE results since be-coming a co-educational school and

adopting the “Diamond Model” of educationin 2009.

Alison Neill, head of the school, said: “Aswith our A-levels last week, our GCSE stu-dents have achieved an outstanding set ofresults which reflect the brilliance of ourschool, our ethos and our students. I amdelighted that CHS students have achievedmore A* and A grades than ever.”

Almost 30 per cent of students achieved allA* or A grades, with nearly 10 per cent ofcandidates achieved straight A* grades.

Dr Neill said: “I am delighted with there s u l t s.

“Academically our students havesurpassed our expectations andare the proof that our uniqueapproach to education, throughthe Diamond Model really doeswo rk .

“Despite what many “ex-per ts” say, our girls’ perfor m-ance at GCSE was mostcertainly not reduced by havingboys in the class.

“The boys have capitalised on thisexperience, working with youngwomen and a number have achieved asmany as seven grades higher than predictedacross all of their subjects.”

GCSE achievements were particularly im-pressive in mathematics and the three sci-

e n c e s.Students with particular cause for celeb-

ration were Eliza Raffle, Emma Hallam-Wor-rall and Hannah Smyk, who all achievedstraight A* grades across all of their sub-j e c t s.

PUPILS and staff at Colston’s School celeb-rated another strong performance in GCSEexaminations with 72 per cent of papersgraded A* to B.

There was success across the curriculum,with an impressive two thirds of studentsachieving five or more A* to B grades.

In the important STEM area (Science, Tech-nology, Engineering and Maths) more thanhalf of the challenging single science GCSEgrades were graded A* or A.

The information technology candidatesmanaged 21 A*s or A grades between the 22candidates.

Bristol Grammar School

CLOSE to half of all GCSE gradesachieved at Bristol Grammar Schoolwere A*s, continuing a trend of highperformance. Some 77 students – t wothirds of the entire year group –

achieved eight or more A* or A grades whilst18 of them secured at least ten straight A*s, orb e t t e r.

A group of ten students achieved the addeddistinction of scoring 100 per cent overall inone of their GCSEs.

There was strong performance across the 27different GCSE subjects offered at BGS, in-cluding STEM subjects – where over 90 ofgrades in biology, chemistry, physics, math-ematics and design technology were between

A* to B - and the arts, where drama, dance andmusic all enjoyed 100 per cent A* to B per-formance. Performance in the exam hall hasbeen combined with impressive levels ofco-curricular achievement in sport, dramaand music, some of which has been at nationals t a n d a rd .

The school’s headmaster Roderick MacKin-non said: “There is no doubt these results areexceptional and I am delighted for our youngpeople who have worked so hard to achievethem. There is also a pleasing consistency,year on year, in the standards our studentsattain and this goes against the commonlyrehearsed suggestion that the ability of stu-dents to achieve the top grades is declining.”

Clifton High School

AFTER an excellent set of A-levels,Clifton High School followed suit byposting great GCSE results. It was itsfirst set of GCSE results since be-coming a co-educational school and

adopting the “Diamond Model” of educationin 2009.

Alison Neill, head of the school, said: “Aswith our A-levels last week, our GCSE stu-dents have achieved an outstanding set ofresults which reflect the brilliance of ourschool, our ethos and our students. I amdelighted that CHS students have achievedmore A* and A grades than ever.”

Almost 30 per cent of students achieved allA* or A grades, with nearly 10 per cent ofcandidates achieved straight A* grades.

Dr Neill said: “I am delighted with there s u l t s.

“Academically our students havesurpassed our expectations andare the proof that our uniqueapproach to education, throughthe Diamond Model really doeswo rk .

“Despite what many “ex-per ts” say, our girls’ perfor m-ance at GCSE was mostcertainly not reduced by havingboys in the class.

“The boys have capitalised on thisexperience, working with youngwomen and a number have achieved asmany as seven grades higher than predictedacross all of their subjects.”

GCSE achievements were particularly im-pressive in mathematics and the three sci-

e n c e s.Students with particular cause for celeb-

ration were Eliza Raffle, Emma Hallam-Wor-rall and Hannah Smyk, who all achievedstraight A* grades across all of their sub-j e c t s.

PUPILS and staff at Colston’s School celeb-rated another strong performance in GCSEexaminations with 72 per cent of papersgraded A* to B.

There was success across the curriculum,with an impressive two thirds of studentsachieving five or more A* to B grades.

In the important STEM area (Science, Tech-nology, Engineering and Maths) more thanhalf of the challenging single science GCSEgrades were graded A* or A.

The information technology candidatesmanaged 21 A*s or A grades between the 22candidates. And yet Colstonians demonstratedtheir versatility with 59 per cent of historypapers receiving the top two grades and animpressive 87 per cent of drama candidatesachieving the same standard. In all, 99 per cent

of candidates achieved five or more A* to Cgrade passes. Some 43 per cent of passes wereawarded at an A* or A grade.

Joshua Callaway, James Clay, Alex Logan,Neha Seegum and Ben Solly all achieved eightor more A* grade passes.

Yate International Academy St Bernadette Catholic Secondary School

THERE were some standout in-dividual successes at Yate Inter-national Academy. Among themwere Shaun Mitchell, 16, whowas recently voted Prom King by

his peers for the Year 11 Prom, whowalked away with seven A*s and twoA s.

But following last year’s school recordhaul of GCSE and BTEC results with 55per cent of students achieving five ormore A* to C grades including Englishand maths, this year’s figure saw a dropto 40 per cent.

The academy’s principal Roger Gilbertsaid: “While this was a rather disap-pointing performance compared to 2013,it has been difficult to compare year onyear results with so many changes to theexamination system that have occurred.

“Notwithstanding that, I am delightedfor the students who did exceptionallywell this year.”

STUDENTS at St BernadetteCatholic Secondary celeb-rated the best GCSE results inthe history of the school. Asuperb 66 per cent of pupils

obtained five A* to C passes includingEnglish and maths. Results across arange of subjects were strong and allmembers of the school communityjoined in the celebrations.

Head teacher Basia McLaughlinsaid: “We are delighted to be cel-ebrating our students’ successes. Allmembers of our school communityhave worked hard and we are proud oftheir achievements. We work hard toensure every young person exper-iences success within a caring, sup-portive environment and it iswonderful to see our students realisetheir potential and leave St Berna-dette’s with strong results and a com-mitment to being the best they canb e. ”

Last month celebrations at theschool started when ClaudiaFragapane, who was in Year 11,won four gold medals at the Com-monwealth Games. Claudia suc-ceeded in maintaining anintensive gymnastics trainingprogramme with her GCSE studiesand passed all her exams, exceedingtarget grades in most areas. Claudiais not the only individual celebratingat St Bernadette’s. A number of pu-pils did exceptionally well. Topachievers include Leo Fernandez,

Rosie Ford and SafiyyahAbdul-Karim who all gained A* and Agrades in all of their subjects. Mag-dalena Lewoniec, who only arrived in

the country in September of last year,gained an impressive A* in five sub-jects and A in her remaining threesubjects. Many other pupils did ex-

ceptionally well, exceeding targets.Chairwoman of governors Kate Nich-olls said: “Our congratulations go toall our pupils who have embraced all

the opportunities provided at St Ber-nadette, have worked hard and arecelebrating their successes. We wishthem all the best for the future.”

Queen Elizabeth’s HospitalBOYS at Queen Elizabeth’s Hospital achievedrecord GCSE results this year, with 90 per centof all grades at A* to B.

Some 72 per cent of grades were at A* or Aand 45 per cent of grades were at A*.

Thirty boys - over a third of the QEH GCSEcohort – achieved a straight set of A* and Ag rades.

Head of English, Rory Harris, was delightedthat a stunning 90 per cent of IGCSE Englishlanguage grades were at A* or A.

He said: “This matches our success in lastye a r ’s English literature IGCSEs, so we areagain delighted at this result in such a vitalsubject area where boys might traditionally

struggle to compete with girls.”Granville Sykes, the school’s deputy head

(academic), said: “Along with stunning res-ults in English language, mathematics scoredan enviable 75 per cent A* and As. In each ofthese two core subjects 100 per cent of ourboys scored an A*-C pass rate.”

QEH headmaster Stephen Holliday said:“Added to record GCSEs, our exceptionalA-level and AS-level results mean that about10 per cent of boys from the year group havebeen offered places at Oxford and Cambridge,in addition to many others who will be off tomedical, veterinary and dentistry schools aswell as other top universities.”

Bridge Learning CampusMANY students achieved a fantastic set ofresults at Bridge Learning Campus in Hart-clif fe.

Among them was Kate Pring, whoearned 13 GCSEs or equivalents,with four at A* and another eight atgrade A.

Mark Davies, chief executive atthe school, said that overall res-ults this year were mixed.

He said: “There is no doubtthat the introduction of new gov-ernment changes to the account-ability framework has had aneffect on our results and that ofother schools locally and nationally.Our overall result with good passes in-cluding both English and maths have im-proved from last year and they needed to, butat 40 per cent is lower than we expected.

“For example, 74 per cent made expectedprogress in English with 60 per cent of these

achieving a C or better; but our mathswas more disappointing and this

has impacted upon our overallre s u l t .

“Similarly the restrictionfrom Government on only al-lowing two vocational sub-jects in the top five scores orgrades has had an effect andschools will have to adapt to

these new changes as wemove forward.“The important thing this

morning is to say well done tostudents, parents and staff and wish

every success for our young people as theymove forward in their lives with successfulGCSEs behind them.”

Sidcot School

RESULTS for Sidcot School have ex-ceeded expectations, with close to 90per cent of students achieving aminimum of five GCSEs graded A*to C and an overall pass rate of 100

per cent.There were also exceptional performances

by a number of individuals including AlexAndersson from Bristol (10A*, 3A) and Car-oline Green from Warminster (6A* and 7A)both of whom gained an A* distinction infurther mathematics – the highest gradep o s s i bl e.

Jade Corbett, from Winscombe, achieved10A*s and 3As.

She said she was delighted with her res-ults. Jade said: “I thought ‘Oh wow!’ – Ialmost fell down the stairs when I ran to telleveryone, I was so happy!”

Jade attributes her success to hard workand the support of her teachers. She said: “Wehave such small classes at Sidcot, the teach-ers know each student and their strengthsand weaknesses so they can encourage extrarevision in the right areas and they gave methe support I needed to get the grades I wascapable of achieving.”

Sidcot’s headmaster Iain Kilpatrick said hewas concerned by the ever-changing examgoal posts. He said: “Students are not stat-istics; they are young people who have suc-cessfully negotiated their first encounterwith the public examination system.

“At this time of year it is easy to be swept upin the debate about exam pass rates andnational averages that misses the point ofhow important these results are to individualstudents and their families.”

The Castle School

Sidcot School

RESULTS for Sidcot School have ex-ceeded expectations, with close to 90per cent of students achieving aminimum of five GCSEs graded A*to C and an overall pass rate of 100

per cent.There were also exceptional performances

by a number of individuals including AlexAndersson from Bristol (10A*, 3A) and Car-oline Green from Warminster (6A* and 7A)both of whom gained an A* distinction infurther mathematics – the highest gradep o s s i bl e.

Jade Corbett, from Winscombe, achieved10A*s and 3As.

She said she was delighted with her res-ults. Jade said: “I thought ‘Oh wow!’ – Ialmost fell down the stairs when I ran to telleveryone, I was so happy!”

Jade attributes her success to hard workand the support of her teachers. She said: “Wehave such small classes at Sidcot, the teach-ers know each student and their strengthsand weaknesses so they can encourage extrarevision in the right areas and they gave methe support I needed to get the grades I wascapable of achieving.”

Sidcot’s headmaster Iain Kilpatrick said hewas concerned by the ever-changing examgoal posts. He said: “Students are not stat-istics; they are young people who have suc-cessfully negotiated their first encounterwith the public examination system.

“At this time of year it is easy to be swept upin the debate about exam pass rates andnational averages that misses the point ofhow important these results are to individualstudents and their families.”
