Which Teacher was the Weakest Link?
16 July 2010
On the 29th of June, 7 teachers faced the mighty Anne Robinson (the Bedford High version - Mrs Ville) in a game of THE WEAKEST LINK. It was time to test our teacher's intelligence!
After five rounds two teachers were left - Mrs Cunningham and Mr Herrick. They faced questions on the history of the school and difficult General Knowledge questions.
The scores were close at the end as the teacher's battled each other until MR HERRICK was announced the winner! We would like to thank all the teachers that participated and everyone that took time out of their lunch to watch. Over £80 pounds was raised for Charity from tickets and donations.

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.
