The government is not publishing performance data for any schools or colleges this year due to the varying impact of the pandemic.

Congratulations to all the students who gained the grades they need to progress onto the next stage of their education. 40 students gained straight A*/A grades across all the subjects they took with no student achieving anything less than an E grade across the whole cohort.

Students who studied BTEC qualifications also did very well with a significant number of Distinction and Distinction* outcomes. These outcomes alongside their A level outcomes have enabled them to progress to a range of universities.

Community wardens on patrol to tackle cycling in pedestrianised zones | The Royal Borough’s community wardens have been patrolling pedestrianised no-cycling zones in Maidenhead and Windsor to raise awareness of new enforcement powers allowing them to tackle cyclists who don’t dismount.

A new legal order means anyone caught cycling through pedestrianised zones in High Street, Maidenhead, and Peascod Street, Windsor, will get a £100 fixed penalty notice and risk a fine of up to £1,000 in the courts.

After a public consultation demonstrated strong community support for the proposal, full council agreed to create the Public Spaces Protection Order (PSPO) as part of taking a proactive stance against anti-social behaviour in all its forms.

Asian hornets spotted in North Ascot

Following a confirmed sighting of an Asian hornet in North Ascot, Royal Borough residents are asked to report sightings using the Asian Hornet Watch app available on the App Store and Google Play Store, or by emailing alertnonnative@ceh.ac.uk . Please include a photograph if you can safely obtain one.

Asian hornets are smaller than our native hornet and pose no greater risk to human health than our native wasps or hornets. However, they do pose a risk to honeybees and work is already underway to monitor for any hornet activity and to identify any nests nearby.

It is important to take care not to approach or disturb a nest. Asian hornets are not generally aggressive towards people but an exception to this is when they perceive a threat to their nest.

St George’s School,

A-Level Results and University Success at St George’s Ascot

As the class of 2022 move into the next phases of their lives in education, work, or through enrichment experiences, we wish them every happiness and success.

After so much disruption to young people’s lives over the past two academic years and against the backdrop of educational uncertainty, we are immensely proud of our outgoing Upper Sixth pupils. Supported by their dedicated teachers and pastoral staff, a real strength of the St George's community, they have achieved excellent outcomes.

Continuing the positive upwards trajectory of academic results at St George’s from the pre-pandemic years of public exams, pupils achieved 100% A*-A in French, 57% A*-A in Maths and 100% A*-B in Geography, Chemistry, Politics, Drama and Fine Art among other impressive outcomes. In addition, nearly all Sixth Formers at St George’s undertake the EPQ, an independent research project highly regarded by universities, and this year’s results were outstanding with 71% at A*-A grades.

Georgians rewarded with consistently impressive GCSE results, having embraced a busy, diverse post-GCSE  ‘Bridging the Gap to Sixth Form’ programme

We are exceptionally proud of our Fifth Year girls and the GCSE results that they have received today, which are consistently impressive across the board, demonstrating strong ‘value added’ despite the adverse circumstances of the past 18 months. 

The year group have consistently worked incredibly hard, both during time in school and extended periods of remote learning, and the strong relationships with their committed teacher, where each girl is well known, have no doubt benefitted them at this challenging time.

After their assessment period in May, the year group embarked on a busy and diverse post-GCSE programme including a  ‘Bridging the Gap to Sixth Form’ programme, the introduction to the Extended Project Qualification and foundation lessons in their chosen A Level courses. This was followed by an opportunity to expand their horizons and enjoy time together with experiences and trips in the local area and beyond, the highlight for many being a visit to Regent’s Park open Air theatre to watch Romeo and Juliet.
