A-level results day 2024: ‘Best ever’ results at The Leys in Cambridge
Students at The Leys in Cambridge have received the school’s best ever A-level results with more than 23 per cent of all grades at A*.
The overwhelming majority of students also succeeded in securing the grades they needed to go on to their first choice of university.
Headmaster Martin Priestley said: “I’m absolutely delighted to congratulate the upper sixth cohort of 2024 on this genuinely outstanding set of A-level results. They worked extremely hard over the last two years and now reap the rewards in the form of these stellar outcomes. I am sure that they, like me, would be keen to pay tribute to my colleagues on the teaching and support staff, all of whom, directly or indirectly, have contributed significantly to these successes. My warmest congratulations to the Class of 2024 and my sincere thanks to all my colleagues at The Leys.”
Some 69 per cent of the Year 13 cohort achieved at least AAB - and 87 per cent of all grades were A*-B.
Top performers include Isobel B, Harry CB, Weng Ga C, Zachary E, Sam H, Ruben M, Lizzie N, Fiona O, Harry TG and Josh W, all of whom gained all A* grades, and Naia D and Clara de S who were both named top performers in their art A-level this year.
There are also congratulations for Emily H and Clara de S who will both take up their places at the University of Oxford studying French and Spanish, and English language and literature, respectively, and to Ginny B, Lizzie N and Roberta A who will take up places to study medicine.
