| Bedstone is a non-selective school, which means that we enjoy a wide range of academic ability. Through the use of the University of Durham’s value added monitoring the college is able to ensure that scholars’ academic achievements are in line with, or above, their ability.From the ISI inspection report 2009:“Results in GCSE over the last three years for which comparative data is available have been above the national average for all maintained schools and therefore have been in line with pupils’ abilities. Results in examinations taken by Year 13 pupils over the last three years have been in line with the national average for all maintained schools and in line with their abilities”. …………..” On leaving the college, pupils are successful in gaining entry to a wide range of courses with most of them gaining entry to their first choice of higher education.” “The high levels of achievement recorded across so many different disciplines reflect the success of the college in pursuing excellence for its pupils across a wide range of activities. This wide range of achievements reinforces the college’s claim to respond to the needs of individuals and to give them the chance to succeed in whatever area of interest and ability they wish to pursue”. |
