It was announced today that Moreton Hall, near Oswestry, has won a Good Schools Guide Award for Highest Performing English Independent School for Girls – Music Performance Group.

Moreton Hall has been presented with this award by the Good Schools Guide for out-performing all other English schools in its category or displaying excellent performance. The prestigious annual awards which are in their 8th year, are based on a detailed analysis of the most recent examination results, and are designed to highlight consistently good teaching. This particular music award takes into account a variety of factors such as results and performances in GCSE, A Level, ABRSM and LCM exams.

Principal, Jonathan Forster said, “We are delighted to be acknowledged in this way for our excellence in music. This is an honour for Moreton Hall and we are sure it will inspire and encourage all pupils who are working towards their music examinations”.

Ralph Lucas, Editor of The Good Schools Guide, comments, “Our annual awards scheme is designed to recognise and reward excellence in teaching in every subject area at both GCSE and A Level or equivalent. Our 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.

The Good Schools Guide is the largest independent guide to UK schools.
