Students celebrate another fantastic set of A Level results

St Clement Danes students were celebrating today after gaining superb A level results. Over a third of grades (35%) were at A* or A with 11% achieving the coveted A* mark. The majority of students got into their chosen university or are using their grades to go straight into prestigious apprenticeships. Commenting this morning, Headteacher Dr Valentine said “I am delighted with these results which are a testament to the hard work of the students and the staff who taught them. In this year of much publicised change, St Clement Danes’ exceptional results have been maintained, despite the demands placed on both teachers and students by new exam specifications.” 5 students were able to take up places at Oxford or Cambridge, with 4 choosing to do so - another will be travelling to the USA to complete her further education there. A number of students received a clean sweep of A* grades. All are to be congratulated on their success; we wish them well as they go their separate ways but look forward to them returning to visit as Old Danes long into the future.

Pupil journalist Sam B secures national 'Student Voices' award

Our  talented pupil, Sam B, Year 9, has been named one of just five winners nationwide in the prestigious ' The Day's Student Voices Young Journalist Awards 2026. Sam B clinched the honour with a compelling, insightful opinion piece titled, “Life Isn't All Sunshine And Rainbows But It's Not Doom And Gloom Either.” The competition judges praised the passion, positivity and exceptional eloquence of Sam’s writing. As part of the winner's package, the article was officially published on The Day’s global Student Voices platform on 15th June, alongside the national announcement of the competition winners. Sam’s award-winning article takes critical aim at the modern media landscape, arguing that mainstream platforms rely on sensationalism and fear to drive reader engagement. The piece contrasts historical anxieties with today's relentless news cycle, which feeds on global catastrophes. While acknowledging real hardships, Sam warns that constant access to bleak updates is mentally exhausting and traps younger generations in a false sense of hopelessness.  Far from advocating for purposeful ignorance, Sam urges readers to stay informed while remembering how far humanity has progressed. The essay highlights that we are living in a golden age of technology and medical achievement.  Ultimately, the award-winning piece serves as a powerful reminder of humanity's inherent resilience and proven ability to thrive in the face of adversity. As Sam beautifully concludes, "It's important to keep positive, because whatever happens, humans always adapt and never lose hope." The entire St Clement Danes community extends its warmest congratulations to Sam on this incredible achievement
