The Haberdashers’ Elstree Schools are delighted to announce their “outstanding” GCSE results.
At Habs Girls, 54 per cent of the grades awarded were 9 and 91 per cent 7-9 and at Habs Boys 61 per cent of the grades awarded were 9 and 95 per cent 7-9, which is the equivalent to all As and A*s.
Nevertheless, it is the schools’ view that it is important to remember that these grades are just one part of the educational journey at Habs and would not have been possible without the other academic and extensive co-curricular opportunities on the campus, creating relevant life skills and character development opportunities for all their students.
From September, the GCSE cohort will be the first students at Habs Girls and Habs Boys who will be taught their A Levels in co-educational classes, with students studying at least one A Level in mixed gender classes across at the other school.
Rose Hardy, Headmistress, Habs Girls and Gus Lock, Headmaster, Habs Boys commented: “Congratulations to our Year 11 students on their outstanding GCSE results. After navigating two national lockdowns, these results are testament to the resilience and hard work of all our students. We are also indebted to all our staff for their unwavering support to our students through this unprecedented time in the history of education. At Habs, great exam results are just the very beginning; our education prepares young people for fulfilment in a world that demands huge flexibility, creativity, resilience and critical thought and we are looking forward to welcoming back this cohort into our Sixth Forms.”
With around 10 per cent of students receiving a free school place, a Habs education can really help transform the lives of child in the local community. The schools currently award over £3 million in bursary support each year and is actively encouraging bright, high-achieving local students from low-income families to consider applying to the school.
