Top scorer amongst these was Bobby Kearney who achieved 3 A\* in Maths, Physics and Economics. Bobby will be going on to study mechanical engineering at UCL. Other star students include Ibrahim Akak - who secured a place studying maths at Trinity college Cambridge having achieved an impressive 5 passes at A/A\* in STEM subjects - and Charlie Cooper, who secured a place studying history at Jesus college Cambridge. 4 William Perkin students will be going on to read medicine next year thanks to their stellar results: Megan Sargent, Jemma Bulsara, Sharisse Bellamy and Amina Zafar, who are going to Leicester, Nicosia, Brighton & Sussex and Imperial respectively. Headteacher Amy Newman commented : ‘William Perkin’s 6th form has been a significant success story and has grown rapidly as a result. We are really proud to have been able to support students onto the most ambitious university courses – particularly this year given the instability over grading ‘ [Results](https://williamperkin.org.uk/news/tag/results) [ William Perkin school awarded Bronze School Mental Health Award Accreditation](https://williamperkin.org.uk/news/2023-06-12-william-perkin-school-awarded-bronze-school-mental-health-award-accreditation) [GCSE Results 2023 ](https://williamperkin.org.uk/news/2023-08-25-gcse-results-2023-2) ### News & Events - [News](https://williamperkin.org.uk/news) - [Events](https://williamperkin.org.uk/events) - [Blog](https://williamperkin.org.uk/blog) - [![Logo of Ada Lovelace CofE High School](https://williamperkin.org.uk/images/academies/Ada_Lovelace.jpeg)](https://adalovelace.org.uk/) - [![Logo of Ealing Fields CofE High School](https://williamperkin.org.uk/images/academies/ealing-fields-high-school.png)](https://ealingfields.org.uk/) - [![Logo of Twyford CofE High School](https://williamperkin.org.uk/images/academies/twyford.png)](https://twyford.ealing.sch.uk/) - [![Logo of Twyford Academies Trust](https://williamperkin.org.uk/images/academies/twyford_MAT.png)](https://twyfordacademies.org.uk/) - [![Logo of Teach West London](https://williamperkin.org.uk/images/academies/Teach_West_Resize.png)](https://www.teachwestlondon.org.uk/) #### William Perkin CofE High School Oldfield Lane North Greenford, Middlesex UB6 8PR #### Our Schools - [Ada Lovelace CofE High School](https://adalovelace.org.uk/) - [Ealing Fields CofE High School](https://ealingfields.org.uk/) - [Twyford CofE High School](https://twyford.ealing.sch.uk/) - [Twyford Academies Trust](https://twyfordacademies.org.uk/) - [Teach West London](https://www.teachwestlondon.org.uk/) © Copyright 2021–2026 William Perkin CofE High School– [View Privacy Notice](https://williamperkin.org.uk/about-us/policies) School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://williamperkin.org.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
