"I am over the moon with my results today, I am really overjoyed! My results are really important to me as I put a lot of hard work and dedication into my studies. Mr Hayes, my Chemistry teacher, has really inspired me and allowed me to see the beauty of Chemistry, a subject I will be doing at A Level in the Sixth Form.

ENRICHMENT OPPORTUNITIES I have enjoyed partaking in multiple Geography trips during my studies, as they gave me a different perspective on the subject, applying my learning in real time.

NEXT STEPS Next year, I’ll be studying Maths, Biology, Chemistry, as well as an EPQ."

"I am very happy with my results today, especially my English Literature and History grade. Mrs Groves (History) was a huge support to everyone, providing us with the self-belief we needed for the exams. As I have progressed through the Senior School, I have really developed, learning how to become more and more confident in each of my subjects.

NEXT STEPS  I'm excited to start my next chapter studying Psychology, History and Biology for A Levels."

"I am most proud of my English Literature grade that I received today. You just need to believe that you can do it. GCSEs are not as scary and daunting as you think.

CO-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES

Being in the Drama Department has been a real highlight of my time at Lingfield. Being in the drama productions, whilst completing Lamda has also been an amazing experience for me. The department has really felt like a supportive community.

NEXT STEPS In September I will be studying Psychology, History, Drama and English Literature at A Level."

RESULTS 2x9s, 2x8s, 4x7s, 2x6s

"I am most proud of my Geography and PE grades, both being 9’s, as I am taking those subjects for my A Levels as well as Economics, as I have never done as well as this before. The biggest lesson I have learnt is to just try your hardest. If you don’t get the result you want, keep trying.

CO-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES I’ve enjoyed playing Hockey, Football and Netball at a high level during my time at the Senior School. Playing sports has been vital in helping me balance my studies.

NEXT STEPS I’ve chosen to study A Levels in Maths, Economics and Psychology at Lingfield Sixth Form, and I'm looking forward to sixth form life - smaller year group, classes and more freedom."

CO-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES I have really enjoyed playing 1st team football and basketball. I remember playing in a cup final for the Small Schools competition. It was very enjoyable and memorable working alongside my friends in a team!

NEXT STEPS I'm excited to study Computer Science, Maths and Further Maths for A Level."

CO-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES I have really enjoyed playing hockey with my friends in the U16A and second team. I was in multiple training sessions and clubs during the school week which helped me to balance my studies.

"Physics was my proudest grade because it was a difficult exam. One thing I will take with me from Lingfield is all the people I’ve met and friends I’ve made. It’s a great community that you won't find elsewhere. Lingfield in 3 words was genuine, honest and unforgettable.

NEXT STEPS I will be taking A Levels in Maths, Physics, Economics and Computer Science."
