    Fionnuala Kennedy, Head of Wimbledon High School GDST, said:

    “These outstanding collective grades represent significant individual achievements, talent and hard work, and we could not be prouder of the Class of 2025 .Not only do these outcomes reflect the sharp intellects and curious minds of these students, but also the commitment and focus they show to their studies. What’s more, they have come through the process with a sense of calm maturity, supporting each other, looking after themselves, and tackling each challenge head-on. They’ve done all of this whilst remaining dedicated to the community that is Wimbledon High, balancing academia with myriad other commitments, like rowing at GB level, taking lead roles in school musicals and leading the school from the front. It is absolutely the case that this generation is brimming with talented, compassionate young people, and these young women are at the forefront of that generation. We wish them all the very best as they stride out into their futures, and thank the teachers and pastoral tutors who have inspired and supported them”.

    Head Fionnuala Kennedy said: 

    “How wonderful to welcome so many students and their families back to school and to see the pride they feel in having achieved such excellent results, particularly in some of the smaller subjects, such as the many languages – ancient and modern – which are thriving at Wimbledon High School, alongside Maths, Science and the Arts.

    “The fact that more than two thirds of grades overall are what used to be an A* is testament to these students’ hard work and dedication. We are looking forward to welcoming this cohort into Sixth Form early next month, together with a number joining us from other schools. Looking at their A level choices, it’s clear we have a strong representation across all disciplines, ready to embrace the independence and challenge of the next stage of their education.”
