Kingswood School's Largest Ever A Level Cohort Celebrate Wide-Ranging Success
Students at Kingswood School, Bath are celebrating an excellent set of A Level and BTEC results.
With 78% of all A Levels awarded at A*, A or B grades, 50% of grades at A*-A, nearly one third of students achieving 3A*/A or better and 87.5% of all BTEC candidates achieving a Distinction, the school's largest ever Year 13 cohort have demonstrated the breadth of success possible at Kingwood School.
There were incredibly strong results in Further Mathematics (89% of grades A*-B), Computer Science (88% A*-B), Biology (87% A*-B), Economics (82% A*-B) and Design Technology (80% A*-B). Furthermore, grades awarded in Drama, German, Latin, Music and Spanish were a clean sweep of 100% A*-B.
This breadth of success is all the more impressive when considered alongside the contribution these young people have made to the wider life of the school. These students have enjoyed incredible achievements on the sporting field and in sublime drama and musical performances, led their F1 in Schools team to the National Finals, founded the work of the Social Justice Group and medalled at the National Philosothon final. All of which reflects how these talented students have balanced their studies with the development of character and exploring wider passions and interests.
Their next steps are also a testament to their hard work, with students successfully gaining a place at their first or insurance choice of university and with all those in receipt of UCAS offers to Oxbridge, Medical and Veterinary Science and apprenticeship offers securing their places.
Andrew Gordon-Brown, Headmaster of Kingswood, said:
'I am delighted that this multi-talented group of young people have achieved so highly in their exam results. These excellent grades round off a Kingswood journey which has seen them leading the school as great role models whilst making the most of their abilities both inside and outside the classroom. As they now move on to their chosen universities, apprenticeships or gap years, their time at Kingswood has prepared them well to flourish in the years ahead. I am incredibly proud of them all and grateful to our dedicated team of teachers who have guided them with such care.'
