It was announced today that Aldenham School in Elstree has won a Good Schools Guide Award for the Best Performance by Boys taking History at an English Independent School.
Aldenham School has been presented with this award for out-performing all other English schools in its category. The prestigious annual awards, now in their 10th year, are based on a detailed analysis of the most recent examination results, and are designed to highlight consistently good teaching. These awards give individual teachers and departments where teaching is at its very best the recognition they deserve. The Good Schools Guide Awards are based on a series of calculations which take into account relative popularity and performance of the subject, absolute performance, and percentage of pupils taking the subject.
Headmaster James Fowler said, “We are absolutely delighted to be acknowledged in this way for our excellence in GCSE History. This is a very proud moment for Aldenham and we are sure it will inspire and encourage all our pupils.” The Good Schools Guide is the largest independent guide to UK schools. The guide contains over 1300 good schools across both the independent and state sectors.
