A Level Results 2024

Braintree Sixth Form students celebrated a morning of success in their A Level and BTEC exams results, in what has been a year of strong and improved results with students achieving a much higher percentage of A*-B and A*-C grades when compared to 2023. We are also pleased to see the overall pass rate increase to 99.2% across all qualifications, with 68% of all grades being Distinction* or Distinction across our BTEC courses.

Huge congratulations to everyone involved and to our students!

Head of Sixth Form, Ms Alex Shephard said: “It is great to see student and staff effort and commitment reflected in these results. We have seen a significant increase on 2023 and so many individual student successes. Well done to everyone.”

Congratulations to Lucy P, a student at Notley High School since Year 7, who has gained a place at the University of Cambridge to study Modern and Medieval Languages. Lucy received an A* in Spanish and Grade As in Psychology and Law, as well as an A* in her Extended Project Qualification.

Charlotte S, who gained A* (Biology), A* (History), A (Chemistry), has been accepted onto a Dentistry course at Queens University Belfast. 

Congratulations also go to Leah H, who has been successful in gaining a place at the University of East Anglia to start her Medicine journey. Leah gained A grades in Chemistry and Psychology, a B in Biology and a Distinction* in Sport.

A few other individual successes include:

  • Jake A, who gained A*AA. Jake will be studying Mechanical Engineering at the University of Southampton.
  • Sam D, who received AAA. Sam will be studying Philosophy, Politics and Economics at the University of Nottingham.
  • Thomas C, who gained AAB. Thomas is going to the University of Nottingham to study International Security Studies.
  • Emily M who received AAB. Emily will be studying History at Queen Mary University of London.
  • Callum H, who received an A* in Business Studies, an A in Economics, and a Distinction* in Sport, and is going to be doing an accountancy apprenticeship with a company called Grant and Thornton, based in London.

82% of our students who have applied to university have been accepted onto their first choice, with 17 students being accepted into Russell Group universities.

Many of our students were also successful in gaining places on apprenticeship programmes and can look forward to starting their new career pathway in the very near future.
