University Offers!

22 Jan 2018
School News

Congratulations to our 15 students who have recieved Oxford and Cambridge University offers!

Over the last half term, I have been delighted by lots of positive news from across the Upper Sixth of offers received through UCAS of places to study at great universities throughout the United Kingdom. These offers should spur the students on to do well in their ‘A’ levels in the summer. This week the students are undertaking their mock examinations and I can report that these seem to have been prepared for with great seriousness by the students.

Last week saw the publication of offers at Oxford and Cambridge universities. Commiserations to those who applied and narrowly missed out – Oxbridge is a very competitive international ‘field’ and, moreover, does not always suit every candidate. However, my warm congratulations go to the following 15 students (a record number for the School and surely one of the best of any school, state or independent in the country):

Phoebe Abbott Law Cambridge Queens
Oliver Bardsley Veterinary Science Cambridge Magdalene
Benjamin Clay Medicine Cambridge Gonville & Caius
Emily Coleman History Cambridge Pembroke
James Cutting French & German Oxford Worcester
Tom Edwards Mathematics Cambridge Corpus Christi
Charlotte Fraser-Morris Biochemistry Oxford Hertford
Louis Kill-Brown Modern Languages Oxford New
Will Kirby Arabic & Spanish Cambridge Pembroke
Daniel Leyva Law Oxford Wadham
Sheamol Obeda Engineering Cambridge Kings
Charles Pottinger Earth Sciences Oxford University
Nickeal Sidhu Natural Sciences Cambridge Gonville & Caius
Juliette Thomas Spanish & Portuguese Cambridge Jesus
Caleb Woodall History Cambridge Pembroke
