Ten pupils have been awarded King’s Scholarships for 2010/11. In previous years, the awards have been given to the top performers in the Entrance Examination, but from this year are now being awarded in the final term of the pupils’ first year at the Senior School. The new awards are in recognition of academic excellence. Pupils, nominated by their teachers, prepared a talk on a subject of their choice which then formed the basis of an interview by senior members of teaching staff.

22 pupils were shortlisted for the honour of a King’s Scholarship, with ten being awarded. The King’s Scholars win an award of £500 and are given the honour of K.S. after their name in all communications.

This year’s winners will collect their awards at Prizegiving at the end of term.  The winners are Ananda Chatterjee (RmAR), Jack Hodgkinson (RmSC), Rishi Lakshmanan (RmPH), Isobel Larken (RmLB), Reya Patil (RmAR), Barnaby Rule (RmLB), Charles Smith (RmSC), Sarah Stearne (RmIR), Matthew Williams (RmIR) and James Wynn-Edwards (RmJW).
