Chemistry Award

The A level results of our Chemistry department and students from the last three years have been recognised with an award from the Good Schools Guide.

The following is an extract from a letter received last week:

Dear Mr Clark,

I am delighted to tell you that Birkenhead School has won the 2011 Good Schools Guide A level Award for the best point score at at an English Independent School for Boys taking Chemistry at A level.

We have made these awards on the basis of the data underlying your performance table results for the three years 2008, 2009 and 2010 combined, and in particular on the basis of the popularity of each subject relative to similar schools, and of the success that pupils achieve relative to the other examinations that they take. Our aim is to highlight excellent teaching in individual subjects.
