Ten year 13 students from the St. Aidan’s and St. John Fisher associated sixth form in Harrogate have been offered places at Oxford and Cambridge for September 2023.
The neighbouring Christian schools created an associated sixth form in 1973 to pool resources. With 1,150 students, it is the largest school-based sixth form in the country.
A spokeswoman for St Aidan’s Church of England High School said:
“It reflects their hard work, impressive academic ability and the dedication of their teachers, whose encouragement and support has helped them to make successful applications.”
Each university has made five offers.
Ben Chumas (physics), Ella Colburn, Matthew Featherstone (maths), Euan O’Connell (geography) and Malachy Stockdale (maths) have been offered places at Cambridge.
Thomas Jenner (physics), Isabel Miles (French and Russian), Ben Mitchell (medicine), Manuela Pasman (French and Spanish) and Ben Roylance (history and politics) have been offered places at Oxford colleges.
