The Friends of Highclare School

The main purpose of the Friends of Highclare School is to promote fundraising and social interaction across the school’s three locations. 

Friends of Highclare School prides itself in the support it gives to the school. We have a committee that meets regularly to organise the various events and a number of parents who offer their help.

The Friends of Highclare School has raised money to help with, amongst other things, new video equipment and playground resources for all three Highclare School locations, this has been achieved by holding many varied activities, including children’s discos, family quiz nights and school fayres.

Should you require any information about the Friends of Highclare School, to offer help at events and functions or if you want to run an event, please come to a Friends of Highclare School monthly meeting or email them on: friends@highclareschool.co.uk

We really do appreciate your support.

Second Hand Uniform Sales

The Friends of Highclare School runs a very successful second hand uniform shop. Donations arrive in excellent condition and represent a superb value for money purchase. Sales are generally held once a month at Highclare Senior School.

Any donations of uniform for second hand sales can be dropped into the Senior School office during school holiday time, between 9.00am and 1.00pm.

This year Highclare students have once again produced outstanding GCSE results.  Nearly one third of all grades were at the highest level of 7 and above and our overall pass rate was 92%, all of which are significantly above the national figures of 22% and 68% respectively.

Half of all grades were 6 and above and 98% of our full-time students achieved 5 of more GCSE passes. Having scored particularly excellent grades in Science and Maths, we are welcoming 4 students onto our Pre-Med scholarship program, designed to support students with medicine-related university applications.

Nearly 10% of our cohort have achieved 8 or more GCSEs at the top grades of 7 or above (or 35% achieved 7 or more GCSEs at the top grades of 6 or above).
