That's not the same as the percentage of children who passed English and Maths in their 5 As to C and if it were true I'm sure they wouldn't have expressed it in this unclear way. I.e. 70 percent of students may pass English but not all of those will also have Maths. Indeed Science is included here and I am sure 70 percent will have passed Science but of those how many also got English and Maths? Anyhow I have nothing against this school or it's head who is clearly doing a wonderful job - you should never choose a school using GCSE statistics alone.[/b]

Yeah right, I wonder why it took so long for them to publish their results? I look forward with interest to see their published results including 5 a to cs later this year. I do not believe for a minute it will be 70 per cent. I don't blame them for trying to obfuscate the results because of the current system/climate and I do think Kingsdale has much to offer its students.
