They continue a long tradition of high performing students from the College to secure prestigious Oxbridge offers.
Evelyn Turner, Iiona Reid, Jude Jones, Zach Ball, John Belcher-Heath, Samuel Ketchell, Diyana Nikolova, Patrick Nolan and Wolfstan Doel recently received the news following months of intensive preparation and hard work with the support of a specialist Oxbridge team at the College.
Deputy Principal Andrew Boden said: “Congratulations to our nine students on securing these highly sought after offers from such prestigious institutions.
“They have each demonstrated huge ambition, commitment and exceptional ability and we wish them every success for the future.”
Students looking to apply to Oxbridge receive specialist support from the College, including carefully managed guidance, workshops and interview training.
