  1. Interesting says:

    Berkeley got a GCSE pass rate of 78% I believe that the Royal Gazette reported that Saltus had a pass rate of only 79%.

    Go figure

  2. Not Really says:

    At Saltus it is mandatory for all Students to sit GCSE exams wheres at Berkeley only those who choose to do so themselevs sit the exams. A 78% pass rate at Saltus is A LOT better than a 78% pass rate at Berkeley… go figure.

      I recognise your point. I like to see that some people are getting benefit out of the public school system.
