“We are absolutely thrilled to be the top school in the UK for the eighth year running” said Cardiff Sixth Form Principal, Gareth Collier. “What we aim to do at Cardiff is to really stretch bright young people through inspirational academic teaching with lots of one-to-one support, a super-curricular programme of academic lectures, tutorials and extension as well as giving them really excellent careers guidance so that they can reach their potential. Our staff are extremely dedicated, many of them leading examiners in their own right and the school has gained a tremendous reputation not just in the UK but all around the world.”
