Fragmented Portraits in the Art Department

Posted: 21st September 2018

A fantastic start to the term for our Upper Fourth pupils.  During Art lessons they are working on Fragmented Portraits using Photomontage technique. This activity is part of their initial explorations in the “About Face” project. The pupils are exploring how to repurpose and combine existing magazine imagery in new and innovative ways to create their own unique visual representations of a face.

GCSE Results

This year Highclare students have once again produced outstanding GCSE results.  Nearly one third of all grades were at the highest level of 7 and above and our overall pass rate was 92%, all of which are significantly above the national figures of 22% and 68% respectively.

Half of all grades were 6 and above and 98% of our full-time students achieved 5 of more GCSE passes. Having scored particularly excellent grades in Science and Maths, we are welcoming 4 students onto our Pre-Med scholarship program, designed to support students with medicine-related university applications.

Nearly 10% of our cohort have achieved 8 or more GCSEs at the top grades of 7 or above (or 35% achieved 7 or more GCSEs at the top grades of 6 or above).
