Glenlola Collegiate Celebrated Outstanding Examination Results
Mr WE Thompson, Headmaster at Glenlola Collegiate School has praised pupils on yet another year of exceptional results. He commented,
‘Our girls have once again achieved excellent results at all levels; the well-deserved result of their hard work and commitment over the past year and of the invaluable support offered by their parents during their time at Glenlola Collegiate. I am sure parents are as proud of their daughters as we are.
It is most gratifying for my staff to see the tremendous impact that their dedication and care has had on the achievements of the pupils they have taught. These results are also a glowing testament to the quality of the education provided by their primary schools. They have laid the foundations for these successes.
I congratulate them and wish our girls well as they prepare to move on to the next phase of their education, especially our Leavers most of whom will be taking up places in universities across the UK and beyond.’
ADVANCED LEVEL
The Y14 pupils of Glenlola Collegiate have achieved exceptional examination results, exceeding the Northern Ireland Girls’ averages at grades A*-A, B, C, D and E.
They recorded a 99.7% pass rate in all subjects offered at A-Level, which compares very favourably with the NI girls’ pass rate of 98.6%.
Over one third of all grades were A*-A while grades A*, A and B accounted for almost two thirds of all those achieved.
