Headmistress Nicola Lilley said: “Students, parents and staff at Twycross House School are celebrating these exceptional results, which are the culmination of great commitment and hard work over the last two years. The students have surpassed even the very high standards achieved in recent years and this has enabled them to make successful applications to universities around the country.”

Headmaster Steve Assinder said: “We are delighted with these out- standing results, which are such a credit to the students, the teaching staff and our supportive parents. For all 22 students to have achieved an average of three A grades is a source of great pride and I am so pleased that the students have also continued to experience such broad and varied opportunities.
“Many of our Upper Sixth leavers have been at Twycross House since the age of four. We wish them all well for the future and look forward to celebrating their success at our presentation evening in November.”
