The Big Classroom

Posted: 18th June 2019

U4 ICT students are currently involved in an exciting project called “The Big Classroom”, which enables different schools across the UK to get in touch with each other to see how they live, learn, play and worship.

As part of this project U4 students are working in teams using iPads to film and celebrate all things great about Highclare School life. They will then be using video editing software to make a mini movie. The best ones will be chosen to be shared with another school somewhere in the UK who we then hope to start a dialogue with, see how different their life is to ours and celebrate cultural diversity.  We look forward to sharing their films!

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).
