Congratulations to Elmfield Students

Elmfield students achieved the best results of any school in the area (correct at time of writing), and it is well worth comparing their outcomes with the national averages:

• A staggering 95% achieved 5 or more A* to C grade GCSEs, including English and Maths (the national average is 59%)
• An incredible 56% of all GCSEs were A or A* (the national average is 17%)
• 95% of English Literature results were A or A*

The results prove that the education on offer at Elmfield delivers not only well-rounded and mature students, but also excellent results for those who apply themselves and work hard. 

 

As with the outstanding results reported here from other UK Steiner school these have been achieved without hothousing and demonstrate that a later start to formal education until a more age-appropriate time can go hand-in-hand with academic success.

Congratulations to Bethany Woodward who represented Great Britain in the Paralympics and won bronze in the women’s 4x100m T35/T38 before taking silver in the T37 200m – a race for athletes with cerebral palsy.

Bethany's lap of honour was in front of a crowd of 80,000 including her former PE teacher at the Kings Langley Rudolf Steiner school, Geert Alkema.

Bethany, who spent eight years at Kings Langley School competed at the 2007 and 2009 UK School Games, made the final of 200m after finishing second in her heat earlier on Wednesday morning.
