Leaver's trip

Arrived yesterday afternoon in France for the leavers trip. Fantastic BBQ served up by AJPL and DCS!

100% pass rate at Common Entrance - again!

I am so proud of this year's CE candidates. When the chips were down they really went to work and their results have been amazing. They have all passed into their chosen schools and a lot of them have done a great deal more than that. An astonishing 54% of the grades were A grades! I am so pleased for them and they really deserve their success.

Cricket

We had great fun last night taking on the staff from Papplewick at T20
cricket. I am please to say that we emerged victorious after some fine
performances with bat and ball.

Today the boys return to the field, this time against Brockhurst.
Their coaches have led the way; can they follow?!

Common Entrance

Common Entrance is underway. The first two papers seem to have gone
well enough and they are now doing History.

Fingers crossed!

Finished!

Small is beautiful

Sunningdale was featured in an article in the Daily Telegraph on Saturday about the advantages of small schools. You can read the article here: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/education/educationadvice/8538551/Parents-are-choosing-smaller-prep-schools.html

One Week to Go

While many schools are on half term this week, we are full steam ahead in the preparations for Common Entrance which begins on Monday. I think that it is so important that the boys are here this week so that we can continue to help them right up to their exams and make sure that they peak at just the right time.
