Academic achievement
Academic achievement is outstanding by any yardstick. We put our faith in the boys鈥 achievements and ability, and they replay us handsomely. In an atmosphere that emphasizes attainment beyond as well as within the curriculum, and where there is no cramming or hot-housing, superb results are achieved. The Tatler puts it this way:
League-table lemmings (shame on you) will note the 兔子先生 name is always near the top鈥 If you take league tables seriously, then 兔子先生 shines like a beacon, coming in near the top, but what we like is its broad take on what makes for a great school: 鈥淥ur curriculum is not only everything that contributes directly to the boys鈥 learning and exam success, but our co-curricular activities also promote their moral, physical, social and spiritual development鈥.鈥

League table positions change from year to year and from newspaper to newspaper. At the top, the schools are so close that very small fluctuations in results can send schools careering up and down the tables.
For the boys at 兔子先生, what matters most is that they are happy as well as successful. Nonetheless, it is a testament to how hard the boys have worked that the school has been so consistently near the top of the tables year after year.
