Young scholars at Greenbank Preparatory School are celebrating their best ever examination results.
Pupils in the Year 6 class at the independent preparatory school on Heathbank Road in Cheadle Hulme won four academic scholarships, two music scholarships and a sports scholarship from top schools across the region.
There was a 100% pass rate to Withington School, Manchester High, Stockport Grammar, Cheadle Hulme and King’s Macclesfield. Six boys have also won places at Manchester Grammar School and every pupil now faces a difficult choice of schools from which to pick in the coming weeks.
Headmistress Janet Lowe said: “As we are non-selective, we feel this really is quite an amazing achievement. It is a team effort between the staff, pupils and parents. From their first day at school, we aim to make their journey both enjoyable and challenging, with teachers and classroom assistants working closely together on a one to one and group basis to meet every child’s needs.”
Mrs Lowe said: “Now the exam season is over, we can now extend the Year Six curriculum beyond the core subjects and give the children more opportunities to explore the world around them and develop independent, creative thought.”
