Record A Level Results at St Peter’s Catholic School

There were cheers and tears of joy as students opened their A level results at St Peter’s School.  78% of all results were A* to B, which is a fantastic achievement and a record for St Peter’s School. Over half of results achieved are A or A*, which is a credit to the hard work and determination of the students.

We are incredibly proud of every student, and a special mention should go to Charles Dudley, Non Geraint and Cara Malcolm who, having achieved 4 A* grades, will now go on to Cambridge University to study Engineering .   Students who achieved 3  A* grades are: Kieran Michael and Jennie Sarama. Many students  were awarded A* or A grades across all their subjects; Adam Birchmore, Farah Bisada, Kathryn Brand, Will Catchpole, Megan Fitzwater, Charlie Haclin, Jenna Hill, Hugo Holmes, Rebecca King, Connie Miller, Francesca Pain, Maura Sherlock and Harriet Trayling. Other students who  should be particularly proud of their achievements are: Maria Baczynska, Sam Levick, Oliver Porter, Joe Roberts, Felicity Scott, Naomi Freeman and Cherry Meeks. Nearly all our student have accepted their university offers, with students going to on to study a range of courses including medicine, dentistry, engineering, English language, accountancy, psychology and midwifery. 

Behind these excellent headlines there are many stories, where students have overcome adversity or personal challenges which make the accomplishment even more special. We are so grateful for all the hard work and effort that has gone into supporting, encouraging and nurturing the students from the staff and the endless support that the parents have given their young people and the school. It is exciting to see them leave St Peter’s and start a new chapter. We wish them all the best for the future.

Congratulations to all of our 200 students who represented St Peter's at the annual District Sports competition. They were all amazing!

17 Year 8 students were treated to a very inspiring insight into the work going on at Linden Homes’ Wellington Grove site in Merrow, followed by presentations to the students from the Managing Director, Department Directors and Management Trainees, with plenty of questions asked by students and note-taking!

Linden Homes provided an opportunity for students to get ‘hands on’ with a competitive bricklaying activity!  Some walls developed faster than others, but some stayed up longer than others!  

Philip Chapman, Managing Director for Linden Homes South commented “We employ people with a range of skills to deliver our homes. From our land buying team, design, marketing and sales and of course construction, there are a wide range of careers available. We have specialists overseeing every different stage of the building project and we hope our Open Doors event has shown young people what a company like Linden Homes is all about – and shed light on the various professions that are involved.”

Mrs Thompson, St Peter’s Careers Co-ordinator added “We are most grateful to Philip and his staff at Linden Homes who have given our Year 8s such an inspirational insight into their sector, helping the students to learn about career entry routes, progression routes and transferable skills which relate to careers in construction and property.”
