Mr. Eastham, Headteacher, said:

On behalf of all colleagues and the Governing Body here at QEHS, I would like to congratulate our Year 13 students upon their fantastic A Level results. Very well done!

With the return to pre-COVID 2019 grade boundaries and the associated national academic landscape, QEHS is delighted to announce that our wonderful 2024 Year 13 cohort has maintained the excellent standards set over recent years with today's A Level results. Once again, over half of all outcomes secured were A*-B grades, while the number of top A*-A grades are equally impressive. We are particularly proud that the average A Level pass achieved by our students this summer has been grade B. These achievements bear testament to the academic prowess of this particular group of students.

This level of success is undoubtedly the result of Year13’s unwavering dedication to study and students' tireless efforts and commitment to hard work. In partnership with the invaluable contribution made by the exceptionally dedicated staff here at QEHS and the support of parents, the Class of 2024 really has made this another exam season worthy of celebration.

Results such as these have seen our students secure prized places at top universities, including two heading for Cambridge and six to medical school. Indeed, with the vast majority securing places at their first-choice university, the array of courses and subjects being pursued is remarkable. From Architecture to Zoology, from Music to Mathematics, Immunology to International Relations, and Costume Design to Comic & Concept Art, the academic routes being pursued are truly rich and varied, thus reflecting the incredible breadth and depth of interests amongst those who study at QEHS. Similarly, there have been great successes where students have secured places on much sought-after degree apprenticeships including, for example, Nuclear Engineering. Well done one and all! Everyone at QEHS wishes you the very best for the next steps of your exciting educational journeys.

Once again, very many congratulations!
