The College has climbed four places in the School Sport magazine awards, being named the UK’s No.4 school for sport, the UK’s No.3 co-ed school for sport, and the best co-ed school for sport in South East England.
Excellence in sport, combined with this year’s outstanding academic results – 88% A-levels A-B and 83% GCSEs 7-9 – position Epsom firmly as one of the UK’s leading schools for all-rounders.
Each year, School Sport ranks the top 200 state and independent schools across the country based on their sporting performance. The rankings are compiled from results in more than 20 different sports and over 120 competitive events, encompassing both boys’ and girls’ teams across all age groups.
Epsom’s position in the top five highlights the College’s continued strength in sports and its ability to nurture outstanding athletes.
Michael Johnson, Director of Sport, said: “This is a fantastic recognition of what the College’s pupils have achieved in the past year. It highlights the skill, commitment and hard work of our young athletes, and the dedication of a talented team of coaching and support staff. I’m delighted that an independent panel has judged Epsom to be the top co-ed school in South East England.”
