The Truth Will Set You Free


Public Examinations 2009

The school is delighted,  that following the release of the ‘official’ public examination results and league tables , we are categorised as the 8th top Comprehensive school in the country in “The Times”, (14-1-10) based on our GCSE results.  We are also the top school in London Borough of Havering for both the highest pass rate including Maths & English, and for CVA,  (Contextualised Value-Added).

Our ‘A’ Level results place us top in the Borough for APS, (Average Point Score),  for both overall results and per student entry placing us 29th in the top 100 schools, (including Grammar schools), in “The Telegraph” .

My congratulations  goes to all our 2009 successful examination candidates, and my appreciation for their dedication and hard work goes to their teachers and support staff.

Headmistress
