5 CHINESE STUDENTS JOIN SMMA...
For the first me a London state school will take five students
from a Beijing school this September — following a trend that’s
already strong in the private sector. The London state school is
our very own St Mary Magdalene Academy in Islington! The
students will be sixth formers studying the IB programme over
two years and come from ‘The High School Affiliated to Beijing
University’ – one of the top schools in China.
St Mary Magdalane Academy is in the top ten of the 100 best
performing Sixth Forms in the country and were asked by one of
China’s most presgious schools to help develop their Sixth Form
programme and to take some students into the SMMA Sixth Form.
The Independent newspaper published the ‘Top 100 Comprehensive Schools at A-level’ basing their table on
Average Point Score at A-level and Internaonal Baccalaureate results. With an average of 1022.9 points per
student; SMMA were placed 9th. The only other London school to make the list was Camden School for Girls
who were placed 96th with 891.7 points per student. The Sixth Form is not only on the local map, it is also
on the naonal and global map.

NEW CLASSROOMS...
Pupils and teachers at St Mary's and St John's, Hendon
were joined in May by Mahew Offord, MP for Hendon, to
officially open two new Y1 classrooms. Mr Offord said:
“This is a great opportunity for the children. Good school
buildings mean a beer learning environment for pupils. I
didn’t have a great educaon myself so I want other
people to have one. The new classrooms are bright,
spacious and pleasant.”
The new classrooms are the first stage in the school’s
expansion into Barnet’s first state-maintained school to
provide educaon from the age of 3 to 18. The school will open a second building in Sunningfields Road
for pupils in Y5 to Y8 in September 2014 and will later open a school for pupils from Y9 to 13.
Headteacher Dee Oelman said: “The two old classrooms were dreadful. Now the place where they were
will be transformed into a staff room and assessment area and the staff room will become another
classroom. The increasing populaon in Barnet means new school places are needed. The expansion will
be a huge opportunity to bring the benefits of a Chrisan educaon to the community of Hendon. We're
an inclusive school at the centre of the community and its fantasc we are able to expand."

ASPIRATIONS...
HOLOCAUST MEMORIAL DAY...
18 yr old St Mary Magdalene Academy student
Daniel Bergicourt, an aspiring investment
banker, admits that realizing just what he could
achieve came to him only aer his GCSEs. He
chose SMMA because of the Internaonal
Baccalaureate programme, and hasn’t looked
back – despite his shock at the work involved. ‘I
thought the IB would help me stand out, but I
had no idea what I was leng myself in for! I
don’t think my friends doing ‘A’ levels elsewhere
have anything like the same work ethic, but the
fact that everyone in my year is so movated
really helps.’
Taking English, Psychology, Economics, Italian,
Maths and Biology, Daniel secured an impressive
total of 43/45 (pung him in the top 0.6% of IB
students in the world). He has now secured a
place at Fitzwilliam College, Cambridge to read
Law & Economics. He is spending his gap year
working in the Business Process department of
KPMG.
Daniel’s mum is so
pleased with
SMMA she has
now moved his 14
yr old brother
Jack there.

appreciaon for the country we live in, that has
freedom of speech and where the free pracsing of
religion prevails. The Memorial Day has truly
opened our

horrors of the
Holocaust, and made
us more proud of the
mul-cultural, mulfaith community we
live in”.
