Mercia Collegiate Sixth Form is delighted to report that five scholars from this year’s Year 13 cohort have received offers to study at an Oxbridge university:
Sasha P – Law, Balliol College, Oxford
Hana U – Law, Pembroke College, Cambridge
Ethan M – Law, Oriel College, Oxford
Maisie S – Medicine, Emmanuel College, Cambridge
Erica T – Natural Sciences, Downing College, Cambridge
Dominic Ridler, Assistant Headteacher and Director of Sixth Form, said: “Our scholars have worked tirelessly on both their studies and their Oxbridge applications, and as a school we couldn’t be prouder of their success. Our sixth form has received another record-high number of applications for entry this year, highlighting our ongoing success as a school and the growing reputation of our sixth form.”
Last August, Mercia’s Year 13 cohort became the first to sit A Level examinations. Twenty per cent of all results were A* grades, with 47% awarded at A*–A and 72% at A*–B. Five scholars also took up places to study at the University of Cambridge, and 13% of the cohort progressed to highly competitive medical courses.
Mercia Collegiate Sixth Form looks forward to further success this summer, and we wish all Year 13 scholars the best of luck as they continue to prepare for their examinations.
