Deputy Head Academic

hace 2 semanas

Madrid, España Runnymede College A tiempo completo

A true family-run organisation, Arthur and Julia managed the school until their retirement in 1998. Arthur and Julia’s son Frank and his wife Cristina continued the school’s impressive growth and founded the Junior School in 1987. Frank is Runnymede’s current Headmaster, and his daughter Georgina is Assistant Headmistress, and his son Manuel Powell runs the operations, including the campus development project. Runnymede continues to embody the ideals upon which it is founded, encouraging children to develop a love of learning and independence.

The School is currently being restructured and from September 2024 will be divided into Pre-Prep (Pre Nursery to Year 3), Prep (Years 4 to 8) and Senior School (Years 9 to 13).

Runnymede College Senior School boasts outstanding exam results and outcomes for leavers, with graduates going on to secure places at top universities in the UK and abroad, including Oxbridge, Russell Group, and Ivy League universities.

In June 2023, 58% of our students achieved A-A* at A level, with 97% of grades being A*-C. This is particularly impressive when compared with the 47% of A*-A grades achieved at independent (private) schools in England this year. In addition, 60% of our pupils gained A*-A grades at IGCSE. Once again, this is a truly excellent achievement when compared with the 47% of A*- A grades at GCSE obtained in the English independent (private) school sector.

In the graduating class of 2023, we have two students who will be studying in Oxford; another will begin her course in Natural Sciences at Cambridge. Other top-ranking UK universities welcoming this year’s graduates include St Andrews, Imperial, UCL, Edinburgh and Bath. The United States has attracted more pupils than ever, with pupils starting their higher education at Columbia, Stanford, NYU, UPenn and Cornell, amongst other excellent colleges.

A number of our students will be staying in Spain, at top-notch places including ICADE, IE and Navarra; others will continue their education elsewhere in Europe in world-leading institutions such as Sciences Po in France, ETH in Zurich, and several excellent universities in The Netherlands, including Eindhoven and Rotterdam.
