We are delighted to announce the recipients of our Excellence Awards for 2017. These awards are presented annually to the students who have achieved the highest marks nationally in the geography examinations.

The Excellence Awards celebrate the hard work and success of students’ achievements in GCSE, IGCSE, Certificate in Geography, A Level, Pre-U and International Baccalaureate geography examinations each year. Students from England, Northern Ireland and Wales are eligible for these awards.

Steve Brace, Head of Education and Outdoor Learning, said: “These pupils have done exceptionally well, which reflects well on their abilities as young geographers and also the commitment of their geography teachers.”
