Commiltnmt
We are very PToud of the 2023 A Level and GCSE students, who experienced atough and unprecedented couple of years.
As lh¢ UVI leavers had been unable to sit GCSE exams due to Covid. Iheir A Levels were the first external secondary
s¢hcK)l a5SeS5tnents ihey had taken, and their resilien¢e and well-earned results were impr¢ssive. with 70O/oolgirls gaining
A¥ or A. 'Value add. at A Level was ihe highest on re¢ord, with giTls performing on average +0.8 of a grade higher Ihan
baseline data predicted.
The Leavers will be heading off to a wide range of leading uDiv¢rsiiies including Oxford, Bimiingham, Bristol, Dyrh2m,
Edinburgh and Exeier.
They will be studying a broad range of subjects including Architectur¢, Biology, Busine55 and Management, ClasSICS.
Computer Science. English, Fine Art, History of Art, Law, Engine¢ring, Liberdl Arts, Modern Languages. Philosophy,
Psychology and Sport and Exercise Science.
A third of the year gmup chose to complete an Extended Project Qualification {EPQ), with impressive re5uIt5'. 40Vts were
awarded A*s. The EPQ allows siud¢nis ￿ demonstrate their 3biliry to pursue independent Study and helps them to
deveIop ¢rili¢al thinking, project management and research skills ihat prepare them well for the next stsge of th¢ir
education. It has also helped a5 an additional qualification in terms of university entrance.
At GCSE. over half of the grades awarded io St Mary's pupils were an 8 or 9 and nearly three 9uart¢rs of grades were at
grades 9-7. This is An excellent achievement that the siudents should be very proud of and a testament to their hard work
and determination. In temis of'value add, atGCSE pupils on average performed +1.2 of agrade hightr than expectations.
Scholarships and Exhibitions continue to be offered to talented girls lookin8 for entry ai I1+, 13+ and the Sixth

ExhibÈtioTh may apply for a means-tested Bursary (see Public Benefit seetion above).
