Scenes of joy as A Level results arrive at WGS

Today is a day of celebration at Wolverhampton Grammar School as the Class of 2024 have proudly achieved an outstanding 100% pass rate across all qualifications.

An impressive 20% of this year’s A Level cohort were awarded an A*, with six students achieving straight A*s. Over 42% of grades achieved were A* to A, with 70% achieving A* to B grades. This strong performance mirrors last year's exceptional results, which recently earned WGS recognition as the top performing Sixth Form in Wolverhampton, showcasing the unwavering determination and hard work of all the students.

A key benefit of a WGS education is the flexibility it offers in subject selection, allowing students to create personalised pathways without being limited by option blocks. This approach is reflected in the success of students securing places at prestigious universities, including Russell Group institutions, and on the most competitive courses including medicine, dentistry, engineering, architecture, law and computer science.

WGS also offers vocational qualifications for sixth form students, including Cambridge Technicals in Sport and Physical Education or Information Technology. All students who pursued these qualifications excelled, with 100% of students in Information Technology gaining at least a distinction.
 

"I am so pleased that we can celebrate stellar results again this year. All students have worked incredibly hard, and these excellent results are a testament to their relentless dedication, determination and drive.

We wholeheartedly share in the pride that our students' family and friends will be feeling today, and we wish all our departing students every success as they leave us. I must also extend my thanks and congratulations to the talented staff here at WGS".
