Reflecting on the performance of this year’s cohort, Acting Head, Mr Peters, commented:
My warmest congratulations to a fantastic group of young adults. As remarkable as these superb results are, we are equally proud of the way our Upper Sixth leavers have continued to enjoy so many activities and interests beyond the classroom at our school. What really underpins this success is that our young people can truly be themselves, thanks to the kind and inclusive culture that permeates everything we do at WGS. Self-evidently, children who are happy and can be true to themselves are children those who can flourish.
Finally, Wolverhampton Grammar School would like to congratulate every member of the Class of 2026 on their outstanding achievements and wish them every success in the future. We also extend our sincere thanks to our parents and families for their unwavering support, which has played such an important role in our students’ success.
