School _____ successful students?
|
Hello everyone, I would like to ask, what word should I use if I want to express that a school "produces" a lot of successful students. Is it correct to use the word �produce �? It doesn �t sound right. If not, what word should I use to replace it? Thanks in advance. |

I think that �graduates � sounds a little odd (at least to my British ears). Actually, �produces � seems ok to me. Otherwsie you may wish to rephrase it as �Our students go on to be successful � or �Our school leavers are successful �. Another option is �Our school fosters/creates successful, independent learners � or something similar. |

�Produces � sounds fine to me, as well.
