Mrs Pritt-Roberts, Acting Head, said:

It is a pleasure to see how well pupils have achieved and they are commended for their positive approach to the examination experience. These results are a testament to their hard work and determination, to the diligence of their teachers and the constant support of parents.

These pleasing A level results follow the excellent results in July for IB Diploma and BTEC. The breadth of courses and destinations that our students move onto is a particular point to celebrate, as an outworking of being a school with a global focus and a commitment to the high-performance learning (HPL) philosophy.

The good news follows on from the excellent results achieved by students who completed the IB Diploma. The 2024 results saw 53% of IB students achieving 30 or more points, the gold standard for the IB Diploma.

• Joseph (France) will be studying International Economics and Management at Bocconi University, Milan, having achieved the highest grade this year, with 41 points.
• Oksana (Ukraine) will be studying International Relations at Harvard College, USA, having gained 40 points out of a maximum of 45.
• Lukasz (Poland) has gained entry to study Natural Sciences and Law, Philosophy and Ethics at Minerva University, San Francisco, USA, matching Oksana’s 40 points.

The BTEC Diploma results also continue to impress, with students celebrating another year of 100% pass results that included several Distinctions, which are equivalent to A* at A level! Prue (Whitchurch) secured Distinction*/Distinction/Distinction in her Diploma and will be following a Manchester City Community Football Coaching course at Manchester Metropolitan University.

Congratulations and well done, to our entire Upper Sixth cohort of 2024!
