Open Morning - Tuesday, 24 November

16 November 2009

As we are still accepting registrations into our Senior School and Sixth Form for September 2010, we would like to extend a warm invitation to you and your family to our Open Morning on Tuesday, 24 November from 10.00am to 12.00pm. 

This will be an opportunity for you to get a better feel for a normal school day here at Bedford High School for Girls.  Pupils from all age ranges will be acting as guides to show you round.

Students from the Sixth Form will be on hand to answer any questions from a pupil's perspective and information about our wide range of extra-curricular activities will also be available. 

As it is a normal school day, you will find that it is the time of year when our Year 11 girls are sitting their mock exams, so there will be a number of unoccupied classrooms.  If you would like to meet a specific member of staff, please let us know beforehand so that this can be arranged.  We regret that we are unable to provide parking on-site, but there are many car-parks close by. 

We look forward to welcoming you to our school.

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.
