Oxbridge Success

An exceptional cohort of twenty-one boys received offers from Oxford (10) and Cambridge (11) this year. This is the largest number since 2000, approximating to fifteen percent of the Upper Sixth Form and almost fifty percent of all applicants. Our pupils have been offered places to read a range of subjects, including Engineering, English, History, Law, and Natural Sciences. Pupils can be extremely proud of their efforts, with the competition for places becoming more intense every year. They all grasped the enormity of the challenge and made great use of extension seminars and mock interviews, as well as engaging in sustained reading in their chosen discipline. All credit must go to the successful candidates for their exemplary efforts. A full list of pupils, detailing Colleges and courses, is found below the photograph of the candidates.
