Summer Art Exhibition
10 June 2009
On Tuesday 30 June from 6.30pm to 8.30pm, the art studios at BHSG will be transformed into a gallery space into which we are delighted to invite you to come and see work from across the school. As well as displaying a wide range of work at key stage three and GCSE level, the show will include works produced by our senior art students that has resulted in unconditional offers of places from Chelsea, Kingston, Leeds, Northampton, MK, etc. The exhibition will include diisplays of painting. printmaking, sculpture, digital arts and textile printing.
GCSE Results
Girls have once again achieved some truly excellent results in their GCSE examinations this summer. 29% of all results were at A* grade, 57% A*-A and 80% A*-B.
Carla Barberio, Rebecca Murray, Hannah Short and Surina Taneja all achieved 10A* grades, Tessa Forbes and Chloe Scott 9A* grades, Connie Fan, Yasmin Jamil and Frances Whittaker-Wood 8A* and Emily Myrtle, Lauren Roberts and Georgia Austin Greenall 7 A* grades.
Eighteen girls were sitting their examinations having spent, in most cases, only 3 years studying in English, and yet between them they amassed results which closely mirrored the overall percentages: 21% A*, 54% A*-A and 76% A*-B.
Although I am sad that our boarders are unable to progress to Bedford Girls' School for their Sixth Form studies, I am delighted that most of our very top achievers will be going on to take A level or IB courses there.
I wish every girl who left Bedford High School at the end of Upper 5 the very best of luck for their future studies.
