The Swaminarayan School ranked second in the table of top independent schools
The Swaminarayan School was ranked second in the table of top independent schools published in the Daily Telegraph this month.
Considering the fact that The Swaminarayan School in Neasden has been in existence only since 1992, this achievement is nothing short of extraordinary.
The school has always achieved excellent examination results and has been at the top of the Brent performance tables for a number of years. In January 2008 it was listed fourth in the table of top independent schools published by the Daily Telegraph. The GCSE results for summer 2009, however, have surpassed all previous records with many students achieving a string of A* and A grades.
· 54% of the grades were either A* or A
· 86% of the grades were A*, A or B
· 100% of the students achieved 5 or more A* to C grades
· The average performance score per student was a staggering 609!
Mr Savjani, Headteacher of the school said:
“The Year 11 students did exceptionally well last summer with some outstanding performances. For example,
· Tanuj Srivastava gained 8 A* grades at GCSE and 4 A grades at AS level
· Kavit Gopaldas achieved 9 A* and 3 A grades
· Alpa Raghwani achieved 6 A* and 7 A grades
The secret is teamwork – pupils, parents, teachers and governors all pulling in the same direction.”
