Exam Results Days are always a strange mixture of anxiety, apprehension and anticipation for both students and teachers.
Although we have an unparalleled reputation in Spain for year-after-year securing remarkable examination results we appreciate that, to borrow a sporting metaphor, ´you are only as good as your last match´.
We are thrilled, therefore, to report that our young people have done brilliantly in their exams. Despite all the hurdles they faced their resilience, determination and sheer doggedness has resulted in yet another year of our students achieving outstanding grades.
At A Level an incredible 70% of all exams were graded as A* or A and as normal, an overall pass rate of 100%.
Not to be outdone by Year 13 our Form 5 (Y11) GCSE candidates also achieved record-breaking success.
The previous best-ever statistic of 71% A or A Star (grades 7, 8 & 9), set in 2016 and 2019, has been exceeded by 3 percentage points. Our figure of 74% is remarkably 45% above national averages. These young people now have a beneficial head-start when applying to university in 2023.
To conclude, our reputation for being a leading European international school for academic excellence has been further boosted.
Our warm congratulations go to all our deserving pupils and their wonderful teachers who, in true Kensington spirit, worked tirelessly together to overcome adversity and fulfil potential.
