Stanground
is a large community comprehensive school serving
south-east Peterborough and part of north-west Cambridgeshire
(particularly the villages of Farcet and Yaxley).
We
have over 1500 students aged 11 to 19, of whom
almost 300 are in the sixth form. We are a partner
in providing community education in south Peterborough,
with a programme of evening classes and other
community activities using our extensive facilities.
We are a Specialist
College for Sport. The extra funding helps us to
develop our sports facilities and to provide support
for other schools in the area, particularly our
local primary schools. We have an excellent sports
hall, an indoor swimming pool and a five-a-side
football centre with ten all-weather pitches. Being
a specialist college, of course, is not just about
sport. We continue significantly to develop teaching
and learning to support achievement in all areas.
We value academic study, vocational learning and
sporting achievement.
We are proud to be an "Investor in People",
a Partner School with Cambridge University Faculty
of Education, to have achieved National Healthy School
status and to have secured the Basic Skills Agency
Quality Mark, the Sports Mark and the Peterborough
Race Equality Award (three times).
We hope you are interested in
what you see on our website.
Yours sincerely
Malcolm Ellison Principal
GCSE
Results
We
are delighted that the College’s
exam results this year are the best in
its 40-year history!
At GCSE, 51% of students
gained five or more A*-C grades, 5%
up on last year’s record-breaking
achievement. On the measure of five
or more A*-C grades including both
English and Maths, 37% of students
achieved it, 8% up on last year.
At A-level, the pass
rate was another record-breaking 97%,
with 53% of those being the top three
grades.
Well done to everyone
involved in achieving these great results
In
April, we were officially recognised as
a Healthy School. This is an excellent
achievement and I am indebted to Sue Baverstock
for her skilled work in coordinating the
programme, bringing together the College’s
evidence and for presenting it so effectively.
The Local Authority’s Healthy Schools
Coordinator had this to say in her letter:
“I was really encouraged
to hear about the wealth of excellent
practice being demonstrated at Stanground
College in support of PHSE and Healthy
Schools and am most impressed by the
way in which the working group has
continued to drive this incredibly
important agenda forward.”
