A-Level Results

TOP GRADES FOR QEH at A-LEVEL

Queen Elizabeth’s Hospital continues its run of outstanding A-level results again for 2011.

QEH boys achieved a 100 per cent pass rate for the sixth year running, with 95 per cent of grades at A* to C grade and 80 per cent at A* to B grade.

Twenty-seven per cent of boys taking the examinations at the school achieved straight A* or A grades in their 3 or 4 A Level subjects.

In all, over 50 per cent of grades awarded to QEH candidates were at A* or A grade and 18 per cent were awarded at the A* grade.

QEH Headmaster, Stephen Holliday, said: “These are superb results at a time when boys often underachieve nationally. Five boys (Sceaf Berry, Greg Horner, Alex Loveday, Tom Pearce and Ali Roweth) all achieved at least three A*s each. No one can doubt the quality of education at QEH with almost all boys gaining entry into a top university.

“With these results, a top ten position in the most recent national Value-Added tables, and with the traditional gap between boys’ and girls’ results narrowing, there has never been a better time to be a pupil at QEH.”
