Blundell’s School Pupils Celebrate Exceptional A-Level Success
Blundell’s School is delighted to announce another outstanding set of A-Level results, marking the second consecutive year our pupils have surpassed the significant threshold of 80% A*-B grades, since the return to normal grading post-COVID.
We are also proud to report that 49% of all grades achieved were either A* or A. Among the cohort of 98 pupils, four achieved three or more A* grades, while 21 pupils earned all As and A*s. Our value-added performance continues to be robust across all ability levels.
Blundell’s pupils have also seen exceptional success in university placements with 90% placed at their chosen university. Popular destinations include Durham, Cardiff, Loughborough, Newcastle, Edinburgh, Bath, Birmingham, Bristol, Exeter, Manchester, Nottingham and UCL.
Mr. Charles List, Deputy Head Academic, praised the pupils’ achievements, stating, “This year’s remarkable A-Level results are a testament to the dedication and perseverance of the Class of 2024. Alongside a busy academic year filled with a wide range of extracurricular successes—including musical performances, sporting accolades, and grand stage productions—our pupils have excelled academically. Such outstanding results do not happen by chance; they are a direct result of the unwavering commitment of both our academic and support staff, who are passionate about the success and well-being of our pupils. We are deeply grateful to them.
The Blundell’s community remains focused on preparing young people to thrive in the opportunities and challenges that lie ahead. Today’s results fill us with immense optimism for what these young men and women will contribute to society, and achieve in their future.”
