QEH celebrates A-level success!

It has been a morning of celebration at QEH today as students received their A-level results. Congratulations to them all on their achievements.

As has been well reported in the national press, this year’s A-levels results were predicted to fall back in line with pre-pandemic levels after three years of higher grades due to ‘Covid inflation’. QEH’s results today have compared very well with our pre-pandemic statistics.

25 students achieved straight A* / A grades with a number of those being straight A*s and the vast majority of students have also gained places at their chosen universities.

Many students chose to undertake the additional Extended Project Qualification (EPQ) alongside their A-level studies and this year’s EPQ results were outstanding. A strong EPQ grade is highly thought of by universities as it is a self-directed qualification, meaning students are responsible for managing their own time and resources. A valuable experience that will help them at university and in the workplace.

Rupert Heathcote, Head of QEH, commented:

“We are extremely proud of the students and their achievements, both today, and throughout their years at QEH. They should rightly celebrate all the hard work they have put in; it was wonderful to see so many delighted students and parents this morning. I would also like to thank the QEH staff for all the support and guidance they have given the students, both inside and outside the classroom.

I have very much enjoyed getting to know all this cohort during their time at QEH, whether that has been 2 years or 11, and I sincerely hope they will all stay connected to the school via our Elizabethan Society.”
