Academy Celebrates Exceptional A Level Results – The Best Ever A Level Results in the History of the School

Banbridge Academy celebrates exceptional A Level results. The pupils of the Academy obtained the best ever A Level results in the history of the School with an outstanding 87.5% of pupils achieving 3 grades A*- C.  Out of the 160 pupils who entered these examinations 46 obtained a minimum of 3 A grades or better, with 3 pupils achieving 4 A*/A grades. Almost half of all entries at A Level were awarded an A*/A grade.  Over 99% of pupils passed 3 or more of their A Level subjects.

 

These impressive results are testimony to the endeavours of all of our pupils, the commitment of the teaching staff and the support of parents. We congratulate all of our pupils on their superb achievements and wish them well as they begin the next stage of their careers. Such remarkable results would not have been obtained without the dedication and commitment of the teaching staff of the Academy; their professional approach has undoubtedly underpinned this success.  The education of our young people involves a partnership and I want to pay tribute to my colleagues in our primary schools who have created the foundation for the success our pupils enjoy today.  I know our parents are delighted with the success of their sons and daughters and they too must be congratulated for their consistent support and encouragement as we work together to ensure high levels of success for our pupils.

 

At AS Level the pass rate of 92.8% is impressive, with an outstanding 37.4% of all entries achieving an A grade.  These results provide an excellent foundation on which to build for A Level success in 2019.  Once again they reflect the hard work of our students, the diligence of our teaching staff and the ongoing support of parents.

 

Our pupils continue to excel and we look forward to working with our community to ensure further success in future years.
