  • 4 A*s for Elizabeth Huang who also won a remarkable four national essay prizes over the course of the year

Dr Tim Hands, the Master, said, “This is a tremendous achievement, and marks the highest number of A*s ever obtained by pupils at MCS with almost half of all entries obtaining the maximum grade. The results demonstrate both the breadth and the depth of talent with consistently high marks across subjects, including 100%A*-A in English as well as typically strong STEM results.

The breadth is also shown by how much the year group has excelled outside the classroom. I congratulate all our pupils in their results and thanks must go to the MCS staff for all their careful work and support over many terms.”
