Ashville celebrates record year for A-Level results

18 August 2016

Harrogate’s Ashville College is celebrating a record breaking set of results with 76 per cent of students gaining A*-B grades.

Forty six per cent of Ashville College’s A-level students have achieved either an A* or A in this year’s exams, continuing the upward trend in Ashville’s results enjoyed over recent years.

Ashville’s BTEC Sport qualification’s first results also included outstanding performances, with 75 per cent of students achieving a Triple Distinction, the equivalent to three ‘A’ level Grade A*s.

Ashville College’s headline figures for 2016 A-Level results are:

  • 46 per cent of all results were A*-A
  • 15 per cent of students passed with straight A*/As
  • 76 per cent of all results were A*-B
  • 97 per cent per cent overall pass rate

Record value added score (indicating that students have significantly exceeded their predicted grades)
Individual successes saw Ed Keen achieving three A*s and securing his place at Cambridge University to study Law.  Alice Butcher will also be taking up her place to study Law at Oxford University.

The majority of students have now secured places at the top universities including Oxford, Cambridge, Durham, Edinburgh, Warwick, Newcastle and Bristol.

 

Ashville College Headmaster Mark Lauder said:

We are highly delighted with this year’s record breaking A-level results.

They reinforce our position as a school that is committed to excellence in academic performance, through fully resourcing the steps required for each individual pupil to achieve their best.

These outstanding results show this is clearly working for the benefit of all our pupils.

My congratulations go to all students, the fantastic results demonstrate the hard work they have put in over the last two years.

I’d also like to pay tribute to my colleagues on the teaching staff who have supported and inspired these Sixth Formers through their studies.
