OT: Any Bev Grammar School old boys on here?

Bilge.

 

I never even realised how many private schools we had in the area.



The school I was at is awful these days. Shame

 

Why say that about Hornsea?

 

In terms of results it's one of the best in the er

 

O Trinity of love and power!
Our brethren shield in danger's hour;
From rock and tempest, fire and foe,
Protect them wheresoe'er they go.

 

Yes OLM, but the 3 that you quote are all independent schools, which are fee-paying, so there is no real comparison. Hornsea is also one of the better ones in the East Riding on overall figures.

 

In fact Hornsea has better GCSE results than both Beverley schools for 2013 according to official figures.

 

Unless it's a case of "lies, damn lies and statistics!"

 

Neither have I. It seems to be an independent school in Dunswell Road, Cottingham, but is non fees, so who goes there is anyone's guess. It did not even appear on the league table that I checked with!!!

 

If it's the one I'm thinking of, it's a religious school. I forget the denomination, but the females wear little head scarves.

 

Do they have normal size heads?

 

Yes, I think he's about 5' 11".

goole - 35%

 

That is from April 2013, so not the last exam year. Old figures not the current ones
