Effingham Sixth Form celebrates best-ever value added in A-Level results

Effingham Sixth Form is celebrating its best-ever value-added performance following this year’s A-Level results, with students achieving exceptional outcomes across a wide range of subjects and future pathways.

Our results place Effingham Sixth Form in the top 10% nationally for adding value from GCSE results to A-Level results, reflecting the commitment, determination and hard work of our students, alongside the dedication of our staff.

At Effingham Sixth Form, we believe that every student has the potential to achieve their very best. Our Sixth Form provides personalised support, challenge and guidance, working individually with students to help them fulfil their ambitions and make the most of their strengths.

We are immensely proud of every student and every destination they choose. Our Sixth Form celebrates individuality, recognising that success looks different for every young person and championing each student’s unique talents, passions and ambitions.

This year’s destinations reflect the remarkable breadth of opportunities our students have embraced. Alongside a place at Emmanuel College, Cambridge, to read Psychological and Behavioural Sciences, students are progressing to the Universities of Liverpool and Buckingham to study Medicine, while others are heading to Bath and Nottingham to pursue Mechanical and Automotive Engineering and Kings and UCL to study Politics and International Affairs as well as Business.

Criminology, Sociology, Psychology and Biomedical Sciences continue to be popular choices, with students progressing to a wide range of universities, including Exeter, Southampton and Surrey.

Our creative and performing arts students have also enjoyed outstanding success, with students securing places at the Universities of Leeds and Leicester to study Theatre and Dance, alongside exceptional achievements in Art, Photography and Textiles, with a place secured at the prestigious Central St Martin’s, showcasing the strength and diversity of our creative disciplines.

Our students’ ambitions extend well beyond the UK, with places secured at McGill University, Canada, to study Computer Science and at the University of Sydney to study Humanities, reflecting the global outlook and aspirations of our Sixth Form community.

These results encapsulate all that Effingham Schools Trust stands for: supporting the full breadth of academic ability, recognising individual strengths and working with every young person to help them achieve their very best.

Director of Sixth Form, Toby Clouston, said: “We are immensely proud of our students and staff. These results are a wonderful reflection of the hard work, ambition and resilience shown by our students, and of the personalised support provided by our staff. To be in the top 10% nationally for value added is a fantastic achievement, and we are delighted to see our students progressing to such a diverse range of exciting destinations.”

As our students take their next steps into higher education, training and employment, we wish them every success for the future. Their achievements are a testament to what can be achieved when every student is supported, challenged and encouraged to reach their full potential.
