Upper Sixth students at Hurstpierpoint College have once again celebrated extraordinarily successful A-level results, with 88.5% of grades awarded at A* to B. This represents yet another significant improvement on last year’s strong performance, and marks the best ever set of full A-level exam grades at the College. Results at the very top end were even more impressive, with A and A*s constituting over 60% of grades.

The Head of College, Mr Dominic Mott, was there to greet students as they came in to collect their results and celebrate their success with their friends. “This remarkable group of students should be immensely proud of these stellar results, which are the product of a huge amount of collective hard work over the last two years. They have been superbly supported by our exceptional teachers, but the students should take full credit for what they have achieved, not least because they have done so whilst simultaneously performing at such a high level in sport, music, drama and engaging with every other aspect of school life.”

The vast majority of these Hurst students are now looking forward to heading off to some of the most prestigious universities in the country, with 98% of them securing a place at one of their top two choices. Not only do they leave school with the necessary grades, but they also enter the adult world with the confidence, independence, qualities and values that will help them succeed in whatever they choose to do next. “Today marks the final page in the final chapter of their school lives,” reflected Mr Mott, “so it is wonderful to see them write such happy endings for themselves. They have fully earned these results, and no-one can take their successes away from them. They leave us prepared for life, and we wish them all the best for the next exciting chapter.”
