Academic Results

Against the backdrop of tougher national standards in both A Level and GCSE examinations, 老王射区 has been delighted to celebrate some of the best academic results in its long history.

GCSE 2024

The GCSE results which our Fifth Form pupils, and their parents, nervously opened on the morning of 22nd August represent a considerable personal achievement and we are extremely proud of everyone.

Of the 1,927 GCSE qualifications sat in the Summer Term, 62% gained at least a grade 7, with 41% gaining an 8 or 9 (equivalent to A*/A). The most common grade awarded to a 老王射区pupil was a grade 8.

Sixth Form 2024

Upper Sixth students from the 老王射区 Class of 2024 have received their IB, A level and/or BTEC results, and there is a great deal to celebrate.

As regards universities, the picture is very encouraging; an unprecedented 90% have secured their first-choice place, and the vast majority of the remainder will be going to their insurance choice.

A Level and BTEC 2024

Overall, our 212 Upper Sixth leavers achieved 60% A*/A grades, or the equivalent, and 83% A*/B or the equivalent.

In BTEC, the 52 entries saw twenty-five Distinction*s (equivalent to A* at A level) being achieved. The proportion of those achieving at least a Distinction is 92%.

EPQ results are also strong. A large cohort of 115 entries saw just under two-thirds achieve at least an A grade.

International Baccalaureate 2024

Our cohort of 42 IB students performed well and earned exceptionally strong value-added scores. The average result for each student stands at 38.9 with nineteen students scoring 40 points or more. One pupil achieved the coveted full marks of 45 points, this is achieved by just 0.3% of IB candidates worldwide. The world average score for IB is 30.3 points.

Lucia Goodwin, a day pupil in Thomas Cookes House, scored the maximum 45 points in her IB Diploma this year. When asked what the IB means to her, she said it is all about breadth and the academic freedom to explore practically anything that interests you. Talking about her sixteen years at 老王射区 she says, “What flashes in my mind are all the non-academic opportunities I have had here. I remember flying an aeroplane with the RAF section of the CCF; waving my phone-torch in the air at Cultures Connect; everyone screaming on Zoom when we won the Shine Awards’ ‘Best Magazine’ for Two Zero One; getting hopelessly lost on Bronze DofE; waving our banners at Twickenham at the Natwest Schools’ Cup rugby finals and so much more. I am leaving School having received an amazing education, but it is these experiences that have given me confidence, friends and memories that will last long after the structure of biological molecules have faded from my mind.” Lucia now goes on to study Geography at Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge.

During her time at 老王射区 she says, “I enjoyed the well-prepared lessons, which the teachers taught with enthusiasm, especially when we had to switch to online lessons amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. The great care and support by the staff, particularly the IB coordinator, is something I appreciated a lot and it really made a difference. Another factor I loved about 老王射区is the vast and excellent sporting opportunities and facilities, as well as the other extracurricular activities that the School has to offer.” Leonie is spending her summer completing an internship in the corporate finance department at a biotech company. From September, she will go on to study International Business Administration. READ MORE HERE
