A Level Results 2021
Hard work, determination and positive attitudes have been rewarded with excellent results for our Year 13 students after an extremely challenging 16 months. Seeing so many of them thrilled with their results, ready to move on to the next stage in their lives, was a real honour. The majority of students achieved or exceeded their predicted grades and should feel very proud of their success in gaining a place at the university of their choice, securing apprenticeships/employment or further training.
Our A-level exam success continues at all levels with a high number of top grades being achieved and superb pass rates in all 27 subjects. Some excellent individual results were achieved in a range of subjects including Business, Computing, Politics, Physics, PE, Media, Philosophy and Ethics, Music, DT and Further Maths.
Our students’ impressive results have enabled them to secure places at many prestigious institutions including Cambridge, Durham, Edinburgh, Leeds, London School of Economics, Manchester, Newcastle, Nottingham, and York. Our Year 13 students are moving on to the next stage of their lives and studying a wide range of courses such as Business, Economics, Maths, Chemical Engineering, Medicine, Geography, Pharmacy and Music. Of those accepting offers of university places 37.5% will be attending Russell Group universities from September, compared with a national average last year of 11%.
