A group of 17 students from S5 are currently in the UK visiting several universities (University of the West of England, Bath Spa University, London School of Economics, University College London, Imperial College, Kings and Queens... among others). As can be seen from the photographs attached, students are truly experiencing what university is about.
Pending the confirmation of the grades gained by one student, the 27 students who took these exams, their parents and the teachers can be very proud of themselves as 100% of the students passed. 4 students gained a grade between 9 and 10; 10 students between 8 and 9; 6 students between 7 and 8; 6 students between 6 and 7; and 1 student between 5 and 6. Congratulations to all for the hard work and the results
As you many know, in P6, S1 and S2 students have one reading lesson per week. While we have a selection of titles available for students in school, please find attached a recommended reading list for each year group which you may wish consult. It is NOT compulsary for your child to purchase/read these books; the lists are provided to help students and parents choose texts if they are unsure what might be interesting or suitable.

Many things are at stake at the end of S4 and because our students need to start making important decisions about their future professional lives, they thus need to get information about possible jobs they could embrace to help them make the right choices, Canterbury School is organising for the first time a "professional forum" at the end of the third term, inviting within the school premises professionals coming from different realms, with different backgrounds who are willing to share their experiences and to give first hand advice to our curious students who will be eager to ask many questions.
