Jeanette Cochrane says:
“Look at what these young women have achieved! More A* to B grades than last year for girls in girls’ schools, and more girls choosing maths, physics, and economics. It’s excellent to see girls’ continued A* success in maths, and standout grades in economics and physics.
Behind every set of results is a young woman who has worked incredibly hard and whose ambition has been lifted in classrooms where girls’ voices go first. Today, we see what girls’ schools give young women.
It is the proof and it arrives every single year.
Results day never quite captures everything that these young women have built in school – the teams they’ve captained, the societies they’ve led, and the self-belief that they’ve developed.
Give girls rooms to learn in where they go first and every year, without fail, with a consistency that cannot be ignored they smash it. This is what happens when you back girls properly and every girl in this country deserves it.”
