Headmaster Dr James Raymond said: “This is an incredible achievement and real evidence of both our girls’ hard work and our continued academic success here at Cranford House.
“These are tremendous results, particularly for a non-selective school. I’m especially pleased to see our value-added score showing yet again that our pupils can expect to achieve 1.2 grades higher per subject. I am hugely proud of both our pupils and our dedicated teachers and I look forward to Cranford House continuing on this superb trajectory.”
