GCSE Summer
2018 PRESS RELEASE:-
ST AMBROSE THE ONLY WAY IS UP!
The only way
is up at St. Ambrose College as GCSE results improved yet again with Acting
Principal Dermot Rainey paying tribute to the boys’ resilience and ‘healthy
competitive spirit.’
The
Attainment 8 ratio, the government’s benchmark denoting the average of all
grades increased from 68.8 to just shy of 70, with the key Progress 8 score,
denoting just how much the boys have achieved than was predicted at age 11
“likely to be higher yet again although this won’t be known for a number of
weeks” said Mr Rainey.

St. Ambrose College A Level students
showed their calmness under pressure by acing the new A Level examinations.
“The change to a linear style of
assessment,”: said Head of Sixth Form Pauline Ridgway, “means there is more
pressure on the final examination.”
Mrs Ridgway added after revealing a 71%
A* to B rate with 39% at the top A* or A grades at the leading Catholic grammar
school in Hale Barns, “this traditionally favours boys’ style of learning, but
it still demands a certain resolve in the examination room and a determination
to rise to the challenge while revising.”
Mrs Ridgway also added: “These are
among our best ever results and shows how readily staff and students have
embraced what has been a quite considerable change.”
Congratulations to all of our students
and best wishes for the future.
God bless
St Ambrose College
