MPW Cambridge Open Day

Tuesday 27th May 2008, 10am - 6pm

MPW Cambridge has long been justly proud of the exam results attained by its GCSE and A-level students. For example, British Accreditation Council audited A-level results for 2007 showed 55% A grades, 83% A-B grades and 98% A-E grades. Similarly, audited GCSE results for 2007 were 86% A-C pass grades.

However, behind such results lie two important facts. Often, the very students who achieve such successful exam and subsequent higher education outcomes join MPW Cambridge with comparably weaker academic track records. That these students then achieve their true potential is largely due to the College's positive ethos and personalised organisation, which combines early screening for weaknesses, small class sizes, individual learning plans and close monitoring of performance by personal tutors through weekly tests. The College's recent Ofsted Inspection Report adds that "Students feel valued and this makes an important contribution to their academic and personal development."

In order to give prospective students and their parents a better insight into the College, the MPW Cambridge Open Day differs from the norm in that it takes place on a typical working day. In this way students will not only be shown around the working College, but they will also be able to sit in on potentially relevant lessons and meet with tutors of subjects they may later opt for, for example, when progressing from GCSE to A-level studies or transferring into our Year 13. In addition, the MPW team of senior staff members will be ready to offer guidance and support to those students who are still unsure of their academic progression.

The Summer Term 2008 Open Day will be on Tuesday 27th May 2008, 10am - 6pm. For further information with a view to booking a personalised appointment for the Open Day, please e-mail David Shah (Director of Studies) at david.shah@cambridge.mpw.co.uk or via the main College contacts.
