Celebrating A Level success

Pipers Corner is celebrating another fantastic 100% pass rate at A Level today, with a quarter of all grades at A*/A and more than half of results at grades A*- B.

Pipers girls have successfully gained places at some of the country’s top higher education institutions including the University of Warwick, UCL (University College London), Loughborough University, University of Nottingham, Central St Martins, University of Leeds, Queen Mary University of London, University of Liverpool and the University of Southampton. The girls will be studying a diverse range of courses including Criminology and Sociology, English and Drama, Business Management with Marketing, Fine Art, Physics, Food Science and Nutrition, Acting, Computer Science and Geography.

This year’s top achievers include:

• Head Girl, Bethan T, who will be embarking on a History degree at the University of Warwick.
• Sophie B, who is looking forward to studying Philosophy and History of Art at University College London (UCL).
• Bethany K, who will be reading Languages and Contemporary European Studies at the University of Southampton.
• Rebecca M, who will be going to the University of Southampton to study Business Analytics.
• Deputy Head Girl, Oonagh O, who has accepted a place at the University of Warwick to read Psychology.

Headmistress, Mrs Helen Ness-Gifford said, “It has been an impressive set of results for our Upper Sixth girls in the face of well-documented examination reform. At Pipers we aim to know each girl as an individual and identify, develop and support her talents and strengths. It is this approach that enables our students to fulfill their potential and go on to study a huge range of courses at a variety of top universities and colleges throughout the country. It has been wonderful to celebrate with the girls today and I wish them all every success as they move forward to the next stage of their education.”
