Male Students with Exceptional Achievements!
Pictured Above: Some of our most successful male students (Matthew Willoughby, Ben Thompson, Timothy Sit and Sam Law)
Nationally, female students continue to out-perform male students at almost every stage of education. Once again, males at the College are managing to close the A Level achievement gap, having reduced it to just 0.1% this year. This represents a significant improvement as the difference in achievement at Key Stage 4 (GCSE) is over 10%. This is testament to the supportive environment of the College and the emphasis on an individual approach.
Principal, Helen Pegg, commented,
“Over the past few years we have developed our systems to support individual students. Every student really does matter to us. In particular, male students face many challenges and we recognise the need to adapt our approach to meet their individual circumstances and needs.”
Luke Hatcher, formerly of St Peter’s High School & International Language College and Timothy Sit , formerly of Holden Lane High School & Specialist Sports College, notched up between them an impressive set of six A* grades and two A grades. Both are delighted to be starting courses in September at their first choice of Warwick University. Luke will be studying Maths and Tim will be studying Mathematics & Physics.
Ben Thompson , formerly of Moorside High School, collected a superb set of A Level grades with three A* and two A grades. In September, Ben will take up his place at Lancaster University, reading Law.
Matthew Willoughby , formerly of St Peter’s High School & International Language College, gained A grades in English Literature, English Language and Religious Studies. Matthew is planning to take a Gap Year before starting a degree in Philosophy & Theology at The University of Nottingham.
