MORE than half of GCSE grades awarded at a West Yorkshire independent school were grades 8 or 9, results revealed today.
Students at Bradford Grammar School (BGS) were celebrating their hard work with nearly a third of grades awarded being a 9.
Dr Simon Hinchliffe, Headmaster at Bradford Grammar School, said the performance of students walked in lock step with the high standards of previous years and he was delighted for them all.
“It’s heartening to be able to celebrate such wonderful outcomes, across sciences, humanities, modern and ancient languages, and the creative arts, and to acknowledge the healthy uptake of a broad range of subjects during Bradford’s City of Culture Year.
“Bradford Grammar School has for generations enriched the Bradford civic and national scene with alumni such as artist David Hockney, composer Frederick Delius, entrepreneur Sir Ken Morrison and triathletes The Brownlees. It’s exciting to contemplate who our latest cohort of young high achievers might become.”
