PARRS WOOD ACHIEVES PERSONAL BEST AT GCSE !!

image

We are extremely proud to report that our ‘Year 11 of 2010’ are celebrating the school’s best ever performance at GCSE, after achieving a 10% increase on last year’s results, in the nationally recognised 5 A*- C including English and Maths progress benchmark.
Overall, 73% of all pupils achieved 5 A* - C, another school record, including fourteen pupils who attained straight A* and A grades in all subjects.
The results are a fantastic achievement and a measure of the commitment and hard work shown by the pupils and staff, reflecting the progress that is being made in raising standards and attainment.
We would like to wish all our pupils, many of whom have chosen to continue their education at Parrs Wood, every happiness and success in their chosen pathway, and ask them to keep in contact to keep us informed as to what we are certain will be a successful future.

SIXTH FORM STUDENTS CELEBRATE A-LEVEL SUCCESS

We are again very pleased to report another impressive set of A-level results from our students in the Sixth Form. Their successes continue the tradition of high achievement. Overall, a quarter of grades were A*-A, half were A*-B and over three-quarters were A*-C which is a fantastic achievement. 16 students achieved at least 3 A/A* grades, four students have secured places at Oxford or Cambridge and 99% of grades were passes.
