A Level Results 2024

Braintree Sixth Form students are celebrating 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.”
