QUEEN’S College has once again been celebrating this morning after the successful A-Level students took away their results last week.
With the majority of students receiving their final GCSE results via E-mail this morning, it is clear there are more happy than sad students.
The college reports that their top grades (9-7) are 68% higher than the national average.
Queen’s College also revealed that 40% of their whole cohort achieved a grade 9, with many students picking up multiple top grades this morning.
Three of the top academic scorers at the College included Angela, Martha and Florence, all of whom achieved seven grade 9s amongst their GCSE results to go on to A-level study.
Angela’s results included a grade 9 in English Literature, her second language.
In her next stage of education, Angela will be going to sixth form at Queen’s, where she will be studying A-levels in Maths, Business Studies, English Literature and Art.
The vast majority of GCSE students have already enrolled to continue studying at Queen’s College in their sixth form.
Queen’s College also wanted to extend a huge congratulations to Adam. Adam, who joined Queen’s College as a boarding student in year six, achieved three grade 9s, five grade 8s and a grade 6.
Adam was Queen’s College climbing captain this year and next year will be studying for A-levels in Biology, Chemistry and Maths and also a BTEC in Outdoor Education.
