The Acting Headteacher, Mr Trevor Elkington said “This is amazing! These are the best results ever in the history of this high achieving school and they reflect enormous credit upon the efforts of the students and their teachers. The majority of our students have achieved their first choice university, many at prestigious medical and law schools and I would like to offer them my warmest congratulations. It is particularly pleasing to see how those students who have joined us two years ago from other local schools have achieved well beyond their target grades and have become a part of the BRGS tradition of success.”
