St Andrew's College and Diocesan School for Girls (DSG) trumped all the averages in their matric results. Not only did both schools achieve a 100% pass rate, but at St Andrew's College, 96% of the candidates scored high enough for entry to degree studies and at DSG 92%.

The Independent Examinations Board (IEB) average is 81.53%. Between the two schools, the 165 candidates attained a remarkable 249 subject distinctions.

St Andrew’s College matriculant Jordan Maze was selected for the IEB's Outstanding Achievement list for being ranked in the top 5% of pupils in six subjects, and getting distinctions in eight subjects, and DSG pupil, Caitlin Mullins, achieved nine distinctions.

Others topping the distinctions lists were Richard Wilson, Daniel Still, Hugo Laplace-Toulouse and Caitlin Wale (7); Matthew Kebble, Breffeni Whitehead, Michael Wilkinson, Angus Roberts, Michelle Horak and Claudia Kelly (6); and Jonty Arnot, Jonathan Ford, Sally Fernandes, Georgina Roberts and Christina Wood (5).

Pupils at both schools attained top 1% rankings in individual subjects. In English, Breffeni Whitehead and Christina Wood were placed in this category; in Accounting, Caitlin Mullins; in Mathematics, Caitlin Mullins, Richard Wilson and Breffeni Whitehead; in Mathematics Paper 3, Richard Wilson, Claudia Kelly and Caitlyn Wale; in Mathematical Literacy, Christopher Weimann; and in isiXhosa Thokozani Ngculu.

“2010 has been a disrupted year academically, but the girls have risen to the challenge and have produced a superb set of results," said Shelley Frayne, principal of DSG. "They continue a proud tradition at our school and I congratulate them and their teachers most warmly.”

St Andrew’s College principal, Paul Edey, thanked the school's staff for their dedication. “The success of our Grade 12 group in the IEB National Senior Certificate Examinations is a fitting culmination of an outstanding year all round for St Andrew’s College," he said.
