ON 25 January, the most-read story on the BBC website was ‘School league tables: See how your secondary school has done’
Bosworth Independent College is proud to report that it is ranked first in the county in the 16 to 18-year-old category for ‘progress score & description’.
In fact ‘well above average’ puts the college in the top five per cent of schools nationally at A-level. This value added score looks at student progression from GCSE to A-level.
For the other categories listed: Percentage AAB with two facilitating subjects, Grade and points for best 3 A-levels and Grade/Point Score – the college is consistently placed third in the county behind Oundle School and Northampton High School. This is something the college is extremely proud of as these schools are highly selective in terms of the proven academic history of students they accept into their Sixth Forms.

Fiona Pocock, Principal at Bosworth said: “We’re delighted that so many of our students have received such gratifying outcomes as a result of their hard work, not forgetting their parents’ support and the guidance of the team here at Bosworth. We experienced an exceptionally anxious wait this summer because it was the first cycle using a revised specification in many subjects, notably sciences. It is testament to the dedicated planning by our teachers and the exceptional determination of our students that the results are so very pleasing. We are bursting with pride!”
