Following the success of last year's talent show, Lower 5 have decided to stage another concert, with singing, dancing and comedy performances from many of the girls.

This year all proceeds will go to the Teenage Cancer Trust. There will also be a raffle during the interval.

You can listen to a small selection of the vocal acts by downloading the mp3 clips which the girls have recorded in the school studio this week:

LISTEN: Helena Prettyman singing 'Crazy'

LISTEN: Alex Ruiz de Villa singing 'What You're Made Of'

LISTEN: Amy O'Brien, Helena Prettyman, Lydia Feerick and Hannah Gillet singing 'Broken Strings'

LISTEN: Emily Charlton singing 'Sweet About Me'

LISTEN: Esther Pyle playing and singing 'Love Story'   

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.
