Pupils at Oswestry School are celebrating another set of fabulous A-level results this year.
The school has maintained its 96% pass rate with our top five pupils achieving an average of 3.5 A-levels equivalent to a points tally just below A*A*A*. With the media suggesting that “students achieving the top grades at A-level has fallen to its lowest level for more than a decade”, we are pleased to have maintained our % A*-A at 16%
The vast majority of pupils are heading to university in a range of qualifications. Demetre Devidze secured the grades for his place at Oxford University to read Physics whilst Oliver Anwyl will study Veterinary Medicine after a gap year. Other destination studies include archaeology, real estate, cybersecurity, and philosophy. The school’s sporting successes also continue with Owen Robinson accepting a soccer scholarship to an American university and Ben Clark moves on to a professional contract with Welsh champions TNSFC.
Julian Noad, Headmaster, commented: “I am delighted by the wide-ranging successes of our pupils. Given our non-selective intake and the increased challenge of A-levels, we are pleased by the overall figures. Moreover, I celebrate the individual successes. Our pupils have worked hard at their studies but also engaged with a wider co-curriculum which has developed their much needed ‘soft’ skills’. I wish every one of them every future happiness.”
