Highclare Preparatory School Annual Pancake Races 2020

Posted: 18th March 2020

Highclare Preparatory School pupils all enjoyed their sponsored House Pancakes Races on Shrove Tuesday.

Children from Cygnets through to Yr6 all took part in pancake races for their houses and entered into the challenges with good spirit cheering each other on.  York House was victorious this year winning almost all of the class races!

Thank you to all the parents, families and friends that  sponsored the children, helping them raise £765.20 for Young Minds our chosen charity this year.

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).
