Students at Quinton House School overjoyed at incredible A Level results
“It has been a pleasure to witness our students’ hard work and resilience, reflected in a set of results of which they can be proud”
Students, staff and families at Quinton House School in Northampton, are celebrating today as they receive a strong set of A Level results.
School leaders say this follows two years of students’ hard work and support within its sixth form.
Many Quinton House students are now preparing for their next steps at leading universities, renowned apprenticeships and employment. Among the destinations are some of the country’s top Russell Group Universities, as well as degree apprenticeships with some leading financial institutions.
Overall, 58 per cent of students achieved three A* to B grades, with 75 per cent of students achieving A* to C grades.
100 per cent of A*-C grades were achieved in Maths, Economics, English Literature, Business Studies, PE, Fine Art and Photography.
While all students should be congratulated for their achievements, some individuals accomplished particularly exceptional results, including:
Max is going to study Chemistry at Warwick University, while Teagan is heading to Edinburgh University to study Archaeology and Ancient History.
Other students including Yasmin, Louis, Faye and Bailey will be taking up places at Southampton University to study Law, Law, International Relations, and Zoology respectively.
Maddie is going to Liverpool University to study Psychology, while Stella is heading off to study Sports and Exercise Science at Loughborough University. Harry and Alex, meanwhile, are both off to start hugely sought-after degree apprenticeships in finance at Grant Thornton.
Alongside academic studies, Quinton House School ensures a broad and rich education.
Collecting his A Level results today, George, said: “Quinton House School for me has always been about a welcoming environment and focuses on character growth. There's good focus on academic progress, but it's more about focussing on making everyone decent human beings too.
“My next move will be to University of Leicester to study psychology. I’m hoping to use it to go into a career in HR, potentially L&D and the school has helped me in every possible way to achieve that.”
Other school highlights over the last two years include the sixth form Global Ambassador group who organised their 4th Students-by-Students conference, focusing on the impact of social media on today’s society, for over 200 students from a number of local schools.
Rosie was runner up in the ISA Lexden Prize, awarded to the most remarkable sixth form student across the ISAs 800 member schools. Alongside this, a wide range of student-led sixth form societies enhanced student leadership.
Phyllis Fiadzomor, Head of Senior School at Quinton House School, said: “It has been a pleasure to witness our students’ hard work and resilience, reflected in a set of results of which they can be proud. These achievements are the culmination of years of commitment, determination and perseverance, and we are confident that they will continue to thrive as they embark on the next stage of their educational or employment journeys.
“I would like to thank our staff and families for the encouragement, guidance and support they have provided throughout. Their partnership has been invaluable.
“While our students may now be moving on to new opportunities, they will always remain a valued part of the Quinton House community, and we will continue to support them and celebrate their successes for years to come.”
