NORTHAMPTON High School students have achieved outstanding GCSE results again this year with the total number of 8, 9 or A* grades reaching 38 per cent – a substantial increase on last year’s impressive total. Also, 46 per cent of girls gained eight or more grade 7 to 9s (A*/As).
Headmistress Dr Helen Stringer, said: “This is a very special day for the girls, their families and the staff who have worked with them, as we celebrate the rich rewards of talent amplified by hard work and dedication. The excellence of our students’ results is a constant but I never take it for granted because it means so much for each individual, in terms of what went into achieving it and what opportunities it opens.
“The fearless energy with which our girls approach their ambitious academic programmes alongside a dazzling range of creative, performing, sporting and philanthropic pursuits never fails to impress me. I congratulate all the girls on their successes and extend heartfelt thanks to all colleagues who have inspired, encouraged and guided the girls along the way.”
