Leehurst Swan tops academic league tables
Monday, March 2, 2009
The success of the former Year 11 pupils in GCSE examinations has been acknowledged in the latest School League tables, published in the Times Newspaper. The 100% achievement in Science, Mathematics and English giving all pupils at least 5 A* – C grades in their GCSE’s last summer, places Leehurst Swan at the top of the league tables for Wiltshire. I am delighted with the success of those pupils, they achieved exceptional standards in core academic subjects. However, we offer a broad and balanced education and I am equally pleased with the achievements in Music, Art, Sport and Drama. For example, the school was recently awarded The Best Independent School in England for GCSE Photography for girls. The academic success of the pupils in GCSE examinations is another facet of the outstanding achievements of Leehurst Swan pupils.
