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.”

You run a remarkable school with an ethic that is truly unique. It shines through in each and every boy. There’s something in the way the teachers know every boy’s talent and in the way the boys support each other (while also embracing real competition!) that’s just remarkable.
