“Their hard work and that of their teachers in supporting them, has culminated in some impressive results and I wish them every success as they start the next exciting stage in their lives.

“I am very pleased with the girls’ results this year, showing again that girls in co-educational schools do perform every bit as well as, if not better than those in single-sex schools.”
