Excellent GCSE results at St Augustine’s Priory
Posted on 25th Aug 2017 in School News, GCSEs
Top grades have been awarded to Year 11 girls at St Augustine’s Priory, Ealing Catholic independent day school for girls, in their GCSE results this year with 82% of results being A* – B or equivalent (9 – 6).
With a clean sweep of A*s in Biology, Chemistry and Physics, 100% passes in English Literature and Mathematics and 83% of Modern Language grades at A* or A, the students at St Augustine’s Priory showed their mastery in a wide range of subjects. The most common grade was A* or equivalent (9/8). Overall, pupils scored A* - B in 12 subjects with over half of all pupils (51%) obtaining at least 5 A* or A grades or equivalent (new grades 9/8/7) between them. 54% of the grades achieved in Mathematics, English and English Literature combined were 9, 8 or 7 (A* – A). 95% of all pupils achieved at least 1 grade A*/A or equivalent. This follows last week’s news that 100% of the Year 11 Additional Mathematics students achieved the top grade, A.
Congratulations to all the pupils on a job well done!
With a wide variety of subjects available at A Level at St Augustine’s Priory, their Year 11 girls can look forward to studying in the Sixth Form under the guidance of outstanding teachers with an emphasis on individual support delivered in small all-girls Sixth Form classes. Enjoyment and hard work await them in the Sixth Form.
Interim Headteacher, Mrs Marie-Helene Collins, commented, ‘Across the full range of our curriculum, our girls have performed brilliantly and we congratulate them on their outstanding results today. Among many highlights, our excellent separate science performance and fantastic results in the new English and Mathematics courses are a particular source of confidence. Another strong year of results yet again confirms our expertise in teaching girls in our wonderful setting, supported by our dedicated staff and with a Catholic ethos’.
