(Media-Newswire.com) - The news follows the success of the School’s class of 2008 which made history in June by becoming the first year ever to achieve a 100% pass rate in the final examination of their Batchelor of Dentistry Surgery degrees.
Tradition dictates that should this remarkable achievement ever occur the students present the Head of School with a pair of white gloves; the presentation was made to Dr Nick Grey at the Graduation Ball.
Dr Grey said: “The excellent performance of our students in achieving a 100% pass rate and our top ranking for student satisfaction reflects the School’s commitment to placing student feedback high on the agenda.
“These successes are a credit to both our staff and students and I was both proud and delighted to be presented with the pair of white gloves.”
The success was celebrated by a School-wide photograph at the beginning of the Academic year and the white gloves are on display in the Head of School Office.
