A Level Results 2016

Once again, we are delighted with the outstanding results achieved by our dedicated and hard working pupils adding the continued positive trends over the last few years. All students gained qualifications with in excess of 67% of pupils gaining A*/A or equivalent in at least one subject area. This stunning figure is matched by the number of pupils who gained 2 or more A levels at grades A* -C, through our academically rigorous curriculum. Yet again, all pupils, without exception, left with qualifications.

Exceptional results were again achieved in the demanding and academically challenging Welsh Baccalaureate Qualification, with its new grading system.
