Isobel's Story
As told by her parents

"Isobel joined Highclare in Preparatory School with an initial intention of transitioning to a local maintained secondary school from year 7. Isobel grew so much in confidence and ability thanks to the personal touch, small class sizes and amount of time dedicated to each student. With the help of a bursary we were delighted to support Isobel's choice to stay at Highclare for Senior education where she is now the proud recipient of an offer form her first choice further education destination."

Vikram's Story
In his own words

"I joined Highclare sixth form unsure of my path after school. Thanks to the tutoring I got from sixth form teachers especially Mr Murray-Smith, I developed my interest in medicine and was coached through the rigorous entrance assessments to achieve a place at one of Europe's best medical universities"

Jake, Clay, Niamh and Idris

"These four Highclare students accepted places at a local senior school sixth form to follow their external friendship group. The parents of Jake, Clay, Niamh and Idris all individually contacted Highclare during the first half term expressing the difference in their children's progress, all four children came in to see us and asked to return to Highclare. By the first half term break all four students were welcomed back to Highclare with open arms."

Proud Mom of Skye

A lovely email received from a very proud parent..... Hi, I know there have been some staff changes, but some Teachers will remember Skye, who was at the school from aged 2 until Upper Sixth. She has just got a First Class Degree at the University of Reading in Environmental Science. It’s safe to say, that without the support of everyone at Highclare, we doubt this would have happened. We are so thankful for all the care and attention, not just to her education, but to her pastoral care and in moulding her into a wonderful young woman. Our thanks to everyone, but with special thanks to: Mr Coles, Mrs Sharman-Everton, Mrs Palmer, Mrs Cassell. I wish everyone the very best – keep up the good work.
