LORDSWOOD GIRLS' SCHOOL AND LORDSWOOD SIXTH FORM CENTRE WINS NATIONAL AWARDS FOR EXCELLENT RESULTS

 

Lordswood Girls' School and Lordswood Sixth Form Centre has been recognised nationally for its excellent results in 2017 based on data from the Department of Education and Ofsted, analysed by SSAT (the Schools, Students and Teachers network). Lordswood Girls' School and Lordswood Sixth Form Centre was found to be among the best performing secondary schools in the country, receiving two awards for being in the top 10% of non-selective schools nationally for attainment and progress.

 

The SSAT Educational Outcomes database compares all state-funded schools in England, with the highest performing for a range of key measures presented with SSAT Educational Outcomes Awards, sponsored by Lexonik. Lordswood Girls' School and Lordswood Sixth Form Centre will be presented with their awards in the summer term at a ceremony attended by winners from across the region.

 

Sue Williamson, Chief Executive of SSAT said:

“I am delighted that Lordswood Girls' School and Lordswood Sixth Form Centre has won two Educational Outcomes Awards. This recognises an important aspect of the schools’ work, but, as we know, there is much more to recognise in a good school like Lordswood Girls' School and Lordswood Sixth Form Centre. SSAT is pleased to recognise the quality of leadership and the hard work of all staff to ensure the success of every child. A big thank you and well done to pupils, parents, staff and governors.”

 

SUCCESS FOR LSFC UNITE US CAMPAIGN

 

The teams running the 20 most successful campaigns in the Unite US campaign competition, run by the Transformation Trust, were invited to a Finalists Forum in London on Friday. Each team presented their campaign to a panel of judges and the other school teams.

 

LSFC students Reya Malhi, Erida Osmani, Rudi Graham and Madihah Tahir, were amongst the top six teams in this year's final. Their team Unify has been campaigning on the lack of representation of women, young people and ethnic minorities in government.

 

They have been awarded £100 to further the reach and impact of their projects up until the May half term break.  In the summer, four winning schools will be selected for places on the Study Trip to Washington DC. This is a fully funded trip and the Transformation Trust will cover the costs of accommodation, travel and food.  The trip will take place on 24th-30th June 2018 and will involve a range of professionals giving master-classes to the students, and opportunities to visit the iconic landmarks of Washington DC.
