Published by Ashville Harrogate on Wednesday 30th of October 2024

Ashville A Level pupils were praised after all of the Class of 2024 were awarded places at their preferred universities.

Rhiannon Wilkinson, Head hailed the Sixth Formers’ achievements:

“This year’s results are our best-ever, not including the mediated results of the Covid-affected years.

“The rise in top A Level grades at Ashville includes 66% at A* to B.

“Our percentage of A*- B grades improved by 6% compared with last year’s figures and our percentage of A*- A grades increased by a very pleasing 7%. 40% of all grades achieved were A* to A.”

She added:

“This across-the-board increase reflects our commitment to building a culture of academic aspiration and success for every pupil, together with developing the personal and social skills through co-curricular activities necessary for the world in which today’s university students will live and work.”

This year’s set of results enable our pupils to pursue the full A to Z of their chosen undergraduate degrees – ranging from Archaeology to Zoology.

They also include Biomedical Science, Chemical Engineering, Computer Science, Economics, History, Law, Midwifery, Modern Foreign Languages, Neuroscience, Occupational Therapy, and Sports Science.

Destinations include some of the UK’s top universities including Cambridge, Manchester, Durham, Bristol, Lancaster, UCL, Liverpool, Sheffield, and Newcastle.

One of the top-performing pupils, joint Head of School Annie M, who achieved a set of two A*s and one A grades, said:

“I’m completely shocked, but so happy.

“All of my teachers have been amazing and went above and beyond for me, and I am so grateful to them and the Ashville community for helping me achieve my goal of studying Law at the University of Bristol.”


Fellow pupil Ethan M is now looking forward to studying Engineering at the University of Cambridge after being awarded four A* grades.

He said:

“I’m really pleased with my results and couldn’t have hoped for better outcomes. My thanks go to my teachers, each of whom has been an outstanding teacher.

“Their commitment, expertise, and support have been instrumental in helping me to get here, and I am incredibly appreciative of their guidance throughout my journey.”


Mrs Wilkinson added:

“We are absolutely delighted with our Sixth Form results.

“Results days are significant occasions for pupils, parents and teachers alike. They are the culmination of a school career and a signpost to the next stage of a young person’s life.

“We are very proud of all our pupils’ success. They have been another outstanding year group who have wholeheartedly committed themselves to the values of the College and fulfilling our ambitions for them.”
