Oxbridge and Harvard offers for Colyton students highest for years

We are extremely grateful for the support from our Old Colytonians who supported students for subject specific interviews for Oxbridge. This year we had our highest number of offers.

'This year, 16 Colyton Grammar School students have received offers of places on undergraduate courses at Oxford and Cambridge, our highest number in recent years. Competition for places this year was fiercer than ever, and their success is testament to their hard work and dedication to scholarship. This year our candidates all benefited from a practice interview with an external interviewer. The experience of an academically rigorous interview in their chosen subject areas was invaluable to our applicants, and we are particularly grateful to all the Colyton alumni who gave up their time to help our students.’ Nick Wakeling, Assistant Headteacher
