Nearly one in four of all A2 grades were A* or A (24 per cent), nearly half of all A2 grades were between A* and B (48 per cent), and 77 per cent of A2 grades were A*-C.

Twenty students achieved three or more straight A*/A grades while the 27 who achieved at least one of the highly demanding grades represented a best-ever result for the school.

Two students achieved three A* grades and one earned four A* grades.

Ms Fearon added; “Five of our top-achieving students have gained places at Oxford or Cambridge University and four have been accepted for Medicine at other Russell Group universities.
