- UCAS points per student = 23.9 again, this is the second best on
record.
- A record 28 students achieved the excellent standard of 3 or more
passes at grade A.
- Three gained fivegrade A passes. They are: Michael Dewar, Sam Ghosh
and John Whittaker.
- One candidate, Oliver Grady, was awarded one of the top five marks
in English Language and Literature out of the 3632 candidates who
sat the examination this year.
- The results mean that 11 students have gained places at Oxford and
Cambridge (six at Oxford and five at Cambridge), a new record (eight
were awarded places in 2000).
- Mr Martyn Morris, headmaster, commented that the school was very
pleased with the results as the year group was not regarded as being
outstandingly able and the numbers in the sixth form have continued
to rise rapidly, with 25 more students taking A-levels this year compared
with last. Almost all the students have gained the university places
that they wanted, which is a tribute to their hard work and that of
the staff at the school.
