Class of 24 celebrate excellent A Level results

It is another year of celebration at Gateways Sixth Form, as pupils achieve fantastic A Level results. 

• 19% of all grades were awarded at A* level and 70% were in the A*- B range.
• 100% of Physics and Drama & Theatre Studies pupils gained A* – A grades.
• 100% of Art & Design, German, Latin, Music and Sociology pupils achieved grades in the range A*- B.
• Destinations include Durham, Edinburgh, Liverpool, Birmingham, King’s College London, Bath and Newcastle.

Gateways Sixth Form pupils have a bright future ahead of them as their fantastic A Level results helped them to secure their top university choices.  94% of pupils achieved places at their first or second choice destination with 82% securing their first choice option and nearly two thirds of pupils moving on to Russell Group Universities.

The Head, Dr Tracy Johnson, expressed her delight at the results:

“We are thrilled that our pupils have achieved such amazing results. Pupils, and their teachers have worked exceptionally hard to secure the best possible outcomes.

The pupils now move on to the next phase in their educational journey truly equipped for whatever life might throw at them in the future!”

This group of pupils are the first cohort to spend their 2 years of Sixth Form in the new Sixth Form Centre which opened in September 2022. The centre is housed in a totally re-furbished building adjacent to the main school providing pupils with the perfect combination of small class sizes and the use of whole school facilities, while also enjoying a large degree of independence. Due to the increase in demand for Gateways Sixth Form places, 2 new garden pods have been added this summer – they were used for the first time on results day!

As a non-academically selective school, Gateways is extremely proud to celebrate these impressive results, showing that their small class size model and personal attention are effective in maximising educational outcomes for pupils.
