Though not a student here, my LO uses the pool facilities for her swimming classes. The school has a real sense of prestige and character, with a formidable entrance, well maintained courtyards and a large field within the grounds. From its appearance, this is an exceptionally well equipped school that is historically significant for the area. I do however suspect that Bancrofts is actually a gateway to Hogwarts.

IMPRESSIVE A LEVEL RESULTS 2019 There were lots smiling faces today at Bancroft’s this morning. After the long 6 weeks wait for this year’s A Level results. We are delighted to report that 65.8% of all A levels taken were graded at either A* or A grade with 85.2% of them at grades A*, A or B. All eleven of the students who held offers from either Oxford or Cambridge have had their places confirmed, with the majority of other pupils achieving the necessary grades for their first choice universities. The main feeling amongst the pupils seemed to be relief that the stress had come to an end and that they can now get on with their summer and their futures. Theva said “I’m just glad it is all over, I can relax now.” Joseph offered some advice for next year’s cohort, “Do something the day before – just take your mind off things. And stay off social media, there are too many rumours about grade boundaries!” Many pupils did better than they had expected; Eloise was celebrating her 3 A*s and place at Bristol, “I’m really shocked. I was busy looking up clearing yesterday and I thought I had been given the wrong results envelope this morning.” Tom shared her joy, “I’ve done way better than I thought. I honestly thought I had failed and didn’t expect to do this well (A*, A, A) so I’m taking up my place for English and History at Sheffield. Caroline said that she resorted to watching Netflix throughout the night as she couldn’t sleep; her fears were unfounded as she achieved the grades needed for her International Business with French degree in Edinburgh. Head Simon Marshall said, “We’d like to congratulate our leavers of 2019 who have achieved impressive results this year. The new reformed, linear A Levels aim to be demanding and challenging, and we are delighted that so many of our leavers have done so well and have obtained places at their chosen universities.

Fantastic school. Plenty of support from staff for pupils developing their interests and very good career advice facilities.

Most people may say that bancrofts school is an intelligent school they are right but what they don't realise is that bancroft school is an academic school that does not incorporate creativity into the curriculum as much as they should. I talked to several people and they all associated bancrofts with academics! A great example of this is: When you take the entrance exam the interview is after and you only qualify for this interview if they think your smart enough. If you do reach that level of smartness when they call you for the interview they ask academic questions such as maths questions. They talk about 'you' very little. But this school does push people to their hardest to achieve good results in gsce and alevels
