Congratulations to five Roedean students who have just received offers from Oxford and Cambridge. It is increasingly difficult to win places at the most competitive universities, so Melanie (Natural Sciences at Newnham College, Cambridge), Georgina (Medicine at Christ Church College, Oxford), Sharon (Economics at Fitzwilliam College, Cambridge), Emily (Chemistry at St Edmund Hall, Oxford), and Yian (Mathematics at Corpus Christi College, Cambridge) all deserve huge congratulations. We are also delighted that Martha has been offered a highly-contested place to study Medicine at King’s College London. Emily and Martha joined Roedean in Year 9 and 7 respectively, Melanie and Sharon came to the School for the Sixth Form from China, and Georgina and Yian won Sixth Form Brighthelm Scholarships for girls from the local area.

Furthermore, it is wonderfully positive that so many of the Year 13 students have already received achievable offers from their chosen universities (with Durham, Edinburgh, King’s College London, University College London, and Warwick the most popular), for a diverse range of courses, including Law, Architecture, Politics and International Relations, Sound Engineering, Physics with Astrophysics, Wine Business, Computer Science, Graphic Design, Criminology, and Art Foundation.  In addition, a number of students have won places at American universities, and one has an offer from the University of London Institute of Paris.
Good luck, and well done to the whole year group!
