St John’s College records consistent­ly excellent results

-

ST John’s College has achieved an enviable reputation both in Wales and among the top independen­t schools in England as a centre of academic excellence.

It remains committed to its aim of providing the best possible education for pupils and preparing them for life.

Of this year’s fantastic A-level and GCSE results headmaster Shaun Moody said: “We are absolutely delighted for our students. These results are a testimony to both the students’ exemplary work ethic and their teachers’ resolute commitment to support each and every pupil even during a global pandemic.

“Many congratula­tions to the class of 2020! The school’s strong, close-knit family community ensures that all pupils and students receive the care necessary to develop their full potential.”

Estyn inspectors have observed that: “The school’s provision for care, support and guidance is of a high quality.

“This level of support makes an exceptiona­l contributi­on to pupils’ high standards, wellbeing and attitudes to learning (Crown copyright 2018).”

The sixth form centre at Eastern Business Park provides additional teaching space in a modern, profession­al environmen­t.

The purpose-built classrooms, student common room and studyresou­rce area with high-speed wi-fi greatly enhances the sixth form experience, creating an environmen­t that is conducive to learning while allowing students greater independen­ce.

St John’s College has a distinguis­hed record of success with university admissions. Specialist mentoring and one-to-one guidance are offered so that students are fully supported with their subject choices, Ucas personal statements, university choices and ultimately, career paths.

The school has an outstandin­g reputation for gaining places at first class universiti­es. Many students will be proceeding to Cambridge and top Russell Group universiti­es.

Sixth form students are encouraged to participat­e in a range of activities aimed at augmenting their educationa­l experience. There is ample opportunit­y to engage in public speaking and debating, the Duke of Edinburgh awards and a wide range of sports and volunteeri­ng.

In the performing arts, students

have the opportunit­y to become fully involved in the staging of senior dramatic production­s, LAMDA and the award-winning concert orchestra. St John’s is the choir school for Cardiff’s Metropolit­an Cathedral.

Pupils can also take an active role in the student council and sixth form prefect system, as well as mentor younger children and become inspiring role models.
