Record number of 6th Form leavers destined for Russell Group Universities

Published by Durham School on Wednesday 7th of October 2015

A record 73% of our 2015 leavers are setting off this month to further their academic studies at top universities with 38% of these destined for Russell Group Universities including Oxbridge. 60% of our students received a Firm offer for their chosen course and university with a further 25% achieving their Insurance place. 9% of the year group chose to take alternative options including gap years with one student being awarded a professional rugby contract at Newcastle Falcons. We wish all of our 2015 leavers every success in the next step of their career path and look forward to welcoming them back as Alumni at our future events, including our own careers fair!
