Release from Bacup And Rawtenstall Grammar School: A level
Results - 2010
Despite media rumours to the contrary,
there were far more happy than disappointed students receiving
their A level results
at BRGS; 3 students successfully achieved
their offer of a place at Cambridge University.
At least 11 students gained entry into various Medical Schools
and many other students into a whole range of other highly competitive
courses including Law, Dentistry and Architecture at universities
as far afield as Exeter to Aberdeen.
Dr Andrew Edwards said, “We are delighted with these results;
we were cautiously optimistic over the introduction of the A*
grade and today celebrate the fact that 8.5% of our entries were
at the new level, against a national average of 7%. Additionally
30.6% of entries were graded as A or A*, 58% as grade B and better
and 80% as grade C and above. Our overall pass rate was 99.5%
out of 1067 entries.
Our early analysis of results using the
nationally recognised Alps data base suggests that 22 out of
34 A level departments
are performing at a level that puts them in the top 25% of similar
departments nationally. This is an exceptional performance. I
would like to congratulate the staff and students on their shared
success, it is a real privilege to work with such people”.
