Four hundred A level results were graded A* or A, representing almost 2 in 3 of all grades and an increase on last year. Overall, 88% of grades were A* - B. This year also saw the continuation of the school’s commitment to offer a broad and challenging curriculum with almost half of all students achieving four passes, an increasingly rare site with schools under such financial pressure and students sitting a greater than ever number of exams with their associated pressure.

12 students achieved straight A*s (or equivalent): Ethan Arnold; Rose Blyth; George Coote; Luke Davies; Max De Bono; Ayush Gupta; Holly Hayward; Pippa Jackson; Milla Keith; Jessica Lally; Kartik Velayudham and Adam Winnifrith

Particular congratulations should go to Rose Blyth, who actually achieved five A*s in Maths and Further Maths, Physics, Chemistry and Music, together with outstanding STEP success, securing her place to read Maths at Cambridge. Praise too to Harry Mouat who achieved six A Levels, including four at A* grade, having taken part in a successful pilot group of students working together to study Computer Science without assistance.
