Meet Patrick 🎉🎓

Patrick joined us from St Philip Howard Catholic Voluntary Academy and leaves with an incredible A*A*A*A* in Mathematics, Further Mathematics, Physics and Computer Science 🏆🔥

"I was hoping for 4 A*s but I really didn't think I'd achieve it!" 😲✨

Next up: the Technology Scholarship Scheme with Cambridge Consultants, followed by university or employment 🚀

Patrick's old school was small, so Xaverian was a big change, but one that paid off.

"I was really surprised by how friendly Xaverian is, considering it is such a big College. It's been really easy to make friends. The best thing about Xaverian is the diversity. Individuals with similar and different interests makes it an interesting place to be." 🌍💫

Congratulations, Patrick! We can't wait to see what you do next 🙌

Meet Daisy 👋🎓

Daisy joined us from UTC Media City and leaves with A*BB in English Language & Literature, Philosophy, Ethics & Theology and Politics. Next stop: Durham University, to study Philosophy and Politics 🎉

"Philosophy, Ethics and Theology was my favourite subject by far. It laid the foundations for my other subjects and taught me so much beyond the specification." 📚✨

Daisy visited Durham before applying and knew straight away it was the right fit. She says the Xaverian staff backed her every step of the way, from developing personally and academically to helping her decide her next move 🙌

"I'm leaving Xaverian with so many standout moments. If anyone's unsure whether it's the right place for them, it is. The transition from high school is challenging, but you're surrounded by motivated, passionate people all working towards the same goal, doing the best they can." 🌟

Congratulations, Daisy! We can't wait to see what you do next 🚀

The grades awarded on Results Day matter, but they’re not the whole story!

We asked our students what they’ll remember most about Xaverian... Here’s what they said:

💬 “I really loved the community at Xaverian.”
🌟 “The best part of Xaverian has to have been the friends I made, these people I am going to be living with the rest of my life, I’ll never forget it.”
❣️ “My teachers were exceptional!”
💬 “I have worked hard, always felt supported, and thoroughly enjoyed being a part of such a diverse community that creates opportunities for everyone to celebrate their individuality.”
🌟 “Work hard and enjoy your time whilst it lasts. Two years at Xaverian will stay with you forever!”
❣️”The friends you will make here will become friends for life, and that is something really special.”

That’s Xaverian. Great results, yes. But also the teachers who back you, the friends who stick around long after the exams are done, and a community that welcomes you in from day one 😁

Forty students came together for the staging of Agatha Christie's 'The Witness for the Prosecution', a classic thriller from the best-selling novelist and duchess of death. In a new adaptation written for Xaverian College, students took on the roles of the jury and the barristers entangled in the complicated murder trial of Leonard Vole, who finds himself standing in the dock with his only alibi appearing as witness for the prosecution!
