University entrance
May 27th, 2009One of our early aspirations was always for any of our students to achieve university entrance, should they so wish, despite the absence of state examinations within the school. While recognising that university is not necessarily the right vocation for all people, securing a university place at the end of our education is important to many senior students and their parents.
18 years on since founding the school, almost fifty students have now achieved university entrance, and the principle of avoiding state examinations until university in favour of The Acorn School’s system has been applauded by universities and even by OFSTED!
