Another 100% Year for A level results at Peterborough High School

Students and staff at Peterborough High School are celebrating achieving a 100% pass rate at A Level for the second successive year.

As well as this excellent headline figure, 59% of all the grades were at A or B, narrowly beating last year’s figure of 58% and putting smiles on many faces.

Shani Osborne in particular will be extremely pleased with her three As and one B, especially given that she has succeeded in some of the toughest subjects: Mathematics, Further Mathematics, Chemistry and Biology. She will now be in an excellent position to move on as planned to study Chemistry at university.

Jessica Levin will also be very pleased with her straight three As to add to her A and B at AS Level; Head Girl, Julia Dixon and Olivia Chalmers, both gained two As and a B and additional AS grades.

Today has also seen the release of the AS Level results taken by pupils in Year 12 and again it’s smiles all round. Just under a third of all grades here were at A (32.1%) and 55% were at A or B; the best scores the School has achieved since AS Level examinations were introduced in 2000.

Headmaster, Adrian Meadows, is naturally delighted with the results and praised the hard work of the students and staff: “To have a second successive year with a 100% pass rate is more evidence that the individual attention our small teaching groups provide and the excellent learning strategies that we put in place get the best out of our girls. We do not shy away from offering traditional, possibly more challenging subjects and to keep achieving these very high standards is wonderful for all concerned. Well done to all our girls.”
