A level success at Warwick

Published by Warwick School on Thursday 18th of August 2016

Warwick School A level students celebrated A level results today. The pass rate at A*-B was an excellent 84.7% with over 54.5% gaining A* or A grades, which exceeded last year’s results. 49 students achieved 3 or more A*/A grades with a remarkable 112 boys in a cohort of 143 students achieving at least one A or A* grade. Mathematics results were particularly notable with 76% of candidates securing A* or A grades. Ronit Kanwar achieved 4 A* grades and will take up his place at Keble College, Oxford to read Economics and Management, having also been awarded ‘Young Entrepreneur of the Year’ in this year’s Leamington Business Forum Awards. Thomas Leung also achieved 4 A* grades and is awaiting Step Paper results in Mathematics, before he takes up his place to read Medicine at UCL. Head Master Gus Lock commented, “Congratulations to all our Upper Sixth students for an excellent set of A levels results. Once again, I am delighted that our boys have performed so well, improving on last year’s results and securing places at a host of elite universities in the U.K. and beyond. Warwick School boys have, once again, attained these super results through sustained hard work, unfaltering support from their parents and the expertise and commitment of our teachers, and I am equally pleased that they have done this whilst also enjoying a fully rounded education with school sport, music, drama and other activities all as strong as ever. We will miss this group of young men immensely – they have been a real credit to the school and enormous fun – and we wish them every success and enjoyment in their continuing education.” AS level results were the best ever with A*A at 61.9% (versus 48.9% in 2015), A-B at 83.8% (versus 72.4% in 2015) which bodes extremely well for next year.
