“Today’s publication of government league tables leaves Lancing College confident that our position as a leading innovator in outstanding education endures beyond the whims of ever-shifting and confusing statistical measures. Lancing proudly offers the IGCSE curriculum in many of its leading subjects, particularly in English, Mathematics and the sciences as these subjects offer a highly rigorous, intellectually profound curriculum without the burden of swathes of coursework. These qualifications place the emphasis firmly on more learning and fewer but more exacting tests. We and many other leading public schools share the position aptly summarised by the HMC in the following BBC coverage of the publication of these tables: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/education-31023682”
