STOCKPORT GRAMMAR SCHOOL CELEBRATE 100 percent A LEVEL PASS RATE

Stockport Grammar Schools’ Upper Sixth have much to celebrate as they celebrate fantastic A Level results with a 100% pass rate and over 96% of results awarded at A* to C, with over 82% at A* to B.

Thirty pupils have achieved at least three A grades, and eight pupils have at least four As. These excellent results will see them heading for courses at the country’s most prestigious institutions.

Headmaster Andrew Chicken said:

“I am delighted for our girls and boys, through hard work and with the support of their parents and teachers they have achieved excellent results. They have made an outstanding contribution to wider school life, making them role models for the younger pupils. I am sure that with talent and dedication they will continue to achieve highly as they progress to respected universities. I wish them every success.”

Charlie Saunders is delighted with his hard-earned four A*s in Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Maths, and is looking forward to heading up to St Andrews to study Medicine.

Charlie, above far right with Nathan Jones &  Jed Holloway, said:

“I have been at Stockport Grammar for 14 years and it has been the most brilliant experience! I’ve made some great friends and the teachers have been just amazing. I really enjoyed the music tours and ski trips too.”

Charlie’s mum added:

“We’re so proud of him – he has worked extremely hard.”

Shareef Sbaiti describes joining Stockport Grammar in the sixth form as “the best decision of my life”.

Shareef has achieved his two A*s in Biology and Economics and A in Chemistry alongside playing rugby, and a season in which as vice-captain of the 1st XV he is clearly delighted that his team “won 11 games, and only lost two.”

Scientist Tasmin Ray is off to Oxford to study Chemistry with her three A*s:

“I worked so hard for this – but I also got so much support from my teachers and they really helped me through the tough application process.”

Tasmin is a talented grade seven pianist and has always participated in school choirs and musical productions. A keen climber, she could often be found suspended from the school climbing wall and she took part in last year’s adventurous climbing trip in the Alps, which she says was “incredible.”

Keen footballer Ryan Jude gained two A*s and two A grades and is London-bound to study Maths at Imperial College.

As well as working hard at school, Ryan has embraced all that Stockport Grammar has to offer in terms of extracurricular activities; playing football for the first team, singing in the chorus and playing in the big band as well as taking part in the Duke of Edinburgh’s award and Young Enterprise schemes.
