Good Schools Guide Award for Bancroft’s

Congratulations to members of staff in our Modern Languages Department. Bancroft's has been awarded a 2015 Good Schools Guide Award for the best performance by boys taking French at GCSE at an English independent school.

Bancroft’s has been presented with this award by The Good Schools Guide for out-performing all other English independent schools in this category. The prestigious annual awards, which are in their 9th year, are based on a detailed analysis of the most recent examination results, and are designed to highlight consistently good teaching. The Good Schools Guide Awards are based on a series of calculations which take into account relative popularity and performance of the subject, absolute performance, and percentage of pupils taking the subject.

Ralph Lucas, Editor of The Good Schools Guide, comments, “Our annual awards scheme is designed to recognise and reward excellence in teaching in every subject area at both GCSE and A Level or equivalent. Our awards give individual teachers and departments where teaching is at its very best the recognition they deserve.”

We are delighted to have won this award and to be acknowledged in this way for our excellence.
