QUEEN Anne’s in Caversham has said it is “delighted” with its students’ achievements as pupils around the country collect their A-Level results today (Thursday, August 15).

Of grades awarded by the school, 86% were C or above, with more than a third (36%) of those given being A or A* grades.

Among those students celebrating today are Keira Barton, whose A* and two A grades in Biology, Geography and Psychology, will see her study Biomedical Science at the University of York, and Ella Barker, who is going on to study Law at the University of Bath after achieving two A* grades and an A.

Criminology students at the school were also high-achieving, with 86% receiving an A* or A grade.

“Mr Ben Stephenson, criminology teacher and director of Sixth Form, said: “these results are a testament to our students’ dedication and curiosity.

“It’s incredibly rewarding to witness their hard work pay off, and I couldn’t be prouder of their accomplishments.”

Rebecca Loader, another of the students celebrating, said: “I was really pleased– I thought I might have failed one of my exams, but I’ve got into the university I wanted, so it’s alright.

“I’m going to the University of Birmingham to study Environmental Science; I have a real fondness for science, and the level of relief I feel right now is something I’ve never experienced before.

“GCSEs feel like nothing after this; I was terrified, but everyone seems to be happy with their results and glad it’s all done.”

She explained that she would be celebrating this evening by attending a Taylor Swift gig: “I’m gonna have the best time ever.”

Among those celebrating similarly was Katie Wilkinson, who achieved two A* grades and an A grade.

She said: “I’m so happy about my results, but surprised.

“It was so much about the two years of work and revision, but it paid off– so I’ll be studying English Literature at Durham.

“I love English, but it was a hard couple of years for sure, so I’m happy– I’ll be celebrating by going to see Taylor Swift.”

Head of School, Ms Elaine Purves, said “today we celebrate not just the students’ incredible academic achievements, but the bright futures that lie ahead.

“Whether they are heading to university or embarking on exciting gap year adventures, our students are future-ready; I wish them all the success and fulfilment they deserve.”
