Outstanding Achievements

Paul Topping, Headteacher of Senior School Voorschoten and an Executive Lead at the BSN is very pleased with his school's A-level results, and especially so as schools emerge fully from the stages of A level reform.

“I would like to congratulate students on their outstanding achievements this year and thank parents for their unstinting support during the Sixth Form years. It has been a real pleasure to witness students and staff working together to produce these excellent outcomes, and I’d like to recognise, particularly, the leadership of Mr Lloyd, Mrs Andrews and the Sixth Form team, and Mrs Street and her careers staff,” he said.

"Students’ success is always achieved through hard work and determination in their studies and rarely without the commitment and professionalism of teaching and support staff whom I would like to thank, along with Governors, for their continuing leadership, dedication and vision.

"This is a school where individual students are really known and understood. We are extremely proud of each and every one and wish them all well as they embark on this new and exciting stage of their lives at Universities and Higher Education establishments around the world.

“Together with our excellent IB and BTEC results and with the thriving Duke of Edinburgh’s International Award at Gold level, our A level outcomes demonstrate the success of our broad range of Sixth Form programmes at the BSN.”

Congratulations again to these students for their achievements!
