Representatives from Highclare Prep and Senior School had the pleasure of welcoming Julia Garden, a community fundraising officer from YoungMinds into a recent assembly celebrating Highclare’s charity endeavours throughout 2018/2019.

Throughout the academic year pupils across the school have been fundraising for YoungMinds through fantastic events such as

  • The French Café
  • Film Night
  • The Big Sleep Over
  • The Yr6 Young Enterprise Scheme
  • Carol Singing
  • #GoYellow for youngMinds Day

We are pleased to announce the amount presented to Julia during our assembly totalled an incredible £10,338.43.  We would like to thank pupils and parents of Highclare School for their continued support.  

 

 

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).
