PUPILS CELEBRATE – A LEVELS 2018

PUPILS CELEBRATE – A LEVELS 2018

Warminster pupils have cause to celebrate today as they reap the rewards for their hard work.  They can be particularly satisfied to have achieved so well after A Level reforms introduced linear assessment for the large majority of subjects.  The School is delighted that top grades were achieved in drama, chemistry, art, maths and English. These results have allowed our pupils to gain places on demanding courses at competitive universities, including many at Russell Group universities.

These positive A Level results combine with our pleasing International Baccalaureate (IB) results that were published in July. The School is proud that our average score remains above the worldwide average for IB Diploma schools.

Top performing pupils include Cassandra McCormack, from Westbury, Wiltshire, who achieved A*AAB, Alexander Veitch, from Salisbury, Wiltshire, gaining AAAA and Charles Powell, from Devizes, Wiltshire, achieving AAAB.

Hard work and academic dedication has paid off in the form of strong results which mean that the vast majority of the leavers of 2018 have secured a place at their chosen university for their chosen course. The School wishes them every success with their future studies.

The Headmaster, Mark Mortimer, commented, “As usual, what matters most to me is that almost all of the departing pupils have worked hard, fulfilled their academic potential and leave with a clear sense of purpose, ready to pursue their interests, be that at university, an apprenticeship or via another route.  Even more importantly, they leave the School as well-rounded, confident and decent young men and women, ready to play their part in society and serve others. I am proud of them all.”
