A Level Results 2024
There will be few who might suggest that Paris and the Olympics were the curtain-raiser to the A Level exam results day but, as one online newspaper suggested, there are similarities. As with the Olympics, years of hard work come to fruition as A Level students open their results, hoping for a place on the medal podium and richly deserved applause for their achievements; just reward for all their talents but especially their efforts.
It is certainly a bumper year of the equivalent of Gold, Silver and Bronze medals, A*, A and B grades, for the Churcher’s College students, with more achieving these top three grades than ever before, laying aside the three years of COVID adjustments.
Just as the GB Olympic team can share the glory of the team performance, it is the success of the individual athletes that is most worthy of celebration. Likewise, along with the joy of the overall school results, the individual Churcher’s students have absolutely excelled themselves. There were six students with at least three ‘gold medals’, A* exam results; a further twenty with two A* grades from their three exams and fifty with nothing lower than A* and A grades.
If there was a grade or medal above gold then Churcher’s College student Louisa Moor would be awarded that; the Oxford, Cambridge and the Royal Society of Arts examination board have written to congratulate her on achieving one of the top grades in the country in her Fine Art exam, and that says nothing of the A* grades she achieved in Biology, Chemistry and her Extended Project Qualification. Joel Ireland would join Louisa on that top step with his four A* grades, a place he is accustomed to as a national award-winning gymnast, cake decorator and public speaker.
Huge enterprise and endeavour with just reward inside and outside the classroom, that is a hallmark of Churcher’s College; the breadth and depth of achievement here heralds huge success beyond school for the Churcher’s College students. Paris and Petersfield, so much and so many to celebrate!
GCSE Results 2024
As athletes who enjoyed Olympic glory in Paris find, the better you become, the harder it is to get better, to achieve personal bests, but, despite this, personal bests still keep coming at Churcher’s College.
With around a quarter of exams at gold medal winning grade 9 and over 50% of all exams grade 9 and 8, this year’s GCSE results for Churcher’s bring many a smile to many a face and better-than-ever levels of success.
With such stunning achievements at GCSE, and on the back of hugely impressive A Level results, demand for places in the Sixth Form at Churcher’s College remains exceptionally high but it is not just about academic results.
Just after they had clearly performed so well in the exam hall, over two hundred Churcher’s musicians were on the professional stage in London at Cadogan Hall enjoying standing ovations; and over the summer there were expeditions to Mozambique, Eswatini and Norway, a team was completing the Welsh 3000s, the choir was performing on stage at Disneyland Paris, there was national recognition for our drama and art and, after all the regional and national sporting success of last year, pre-season training is just about to begin for the coming year.
So much to celebrate; whether success inside the classroom is as a consequence of all that is happening outside or vice-versa there is no doubt that, once again, there have been gold medal performances aplenty at Churcher’s College; just rewards for all the energy and endeavour that is a hallmark of life at Churcher’s.
Another day with so much joy and reward for all at Churcher’s!
