Former Bedford Modern School Year 13 student, Sophie King, who left the School in July, is to be congratulated on her excellent Advanced Level results in Film Studies.
Sophie received 384 marks out of 400, and came first of all the candidates in England and Wales who studied Film Studies with the WJEC Examination Board in 2011.
This is an outstanding achievement and Sophie received a cash prize and a certificate on behalf of WJEC to mark her accomplishment.
While at Bedford Modern School, Sophie was editor of the School’s pupil-led magazine, ‘The Eagle’. The publication is a wonderful window into the rich and varied life of Bedford Modern School. Under Sophie’s editorship ‘The Eagle’ was shortlisted in three categories – Best Cover; Best Artwork & Photography and Best Feature Article – in The Shine 2011 School Media Awards.
18-year-old Sophie, has 9 A* grades at GCSE and 3 A* grades at A Level and is now studying Film Studies at King’s College, London.
Sophie said: “I found my Film Studies A Level an extremely enriching course that motivated me to pursue a career in film, making my professional directing debut at the British Film Institute (BFI) this summer.
“John Sanders, head of Film Studies at Bedford Modern School was a particularly motivational force whom I’d like to thank for guiding me towards my pleasing result.”
John Sanders added: “Sophie was an exceptional student while she was at Bedford Modern School; her academic and creative work was outstanding, and I am delighted that all her hard work has resulted in this national recognition. I am sure that she is destined to achieve many great things over the coming years.”
