Fantastic Results for Standish Community High School’s Head Prefects

Head Prefects, Freya and Henry, as well as Deputy Head Prefects, Annabel and Louie, all capped off a fantastic five years at Standish with a glittering set of exam results.

All four students have represented the school with distinction over the last school year – and finished off their time at Standish in style with a wonderful set of GCSE results – including five Grade 9s, nine Grade 8s, five Grade 7s, fourteen Grade 6s, three Grade 5s, one Grade 4 and two B-Tech Distinctions – an amazing thirty-nine GCSEs between them!

Henry, who is the final sibling of three to come through Standish, said he was most proud of his further maths result. “It’s better than I thought! I was quite nervous last night!” He’s planning on going to Runshaw to study maths, economics and history.

Louie has now secured a place at the prestigious Chethams School of Music to play violin. “It was a full day audition playing several pieces and sitting music theory tests as well as interviews.” He wanted to thank Mrs Christopherson in particular as he was very proud of his two Grade 9s in English Language and literature. “After college, I’d love to play in an orchestra professionally.”

Annabel admitted she was very nervous the night before but wanted to thank Mrs Carter, her Head of Year, for all her support over the last five years. “I’m going to Winstanley to study law, media studies and sociology”.

Freya, who was our senior student librarian too, said, “I’m most proud of my maths result. I want to thank Miss Winstanley in particular.” Asked about balancing her voluntary work in the library with her studies, she said, “I think it helped actually. It’s given me a lot of real-world skills – customer service skills really – that has added to my GCSE results. It definitely helps me in my current job!”

Everyone at Standish would like to thank all four students for all their work as fantastic ambassadors for the school. Well done to you all!
