Around ¾ of IGS students now move on to a range of university destinations including Oxbridge and music conservatoire, with an impressive 80% (102 students) gaining places at their first choice universities today, with all other students moving into employment or taking a gap year in 2018-19.

Helen Williams, Headteacher said, “It’s been yet another fantastic results day at IGS, where we are privileged to share in and celebrate the achievements of all of our students as they move on to their university or career path of choice or take a gap year. We are extremely proud of the class of 2018 and I’d like to thank all of the staff at IGS who have worked so hard over the last two years to support our students to gain these high levels of success once again. Well done to everyone!”
