Walthamstow Academy sixth formers celebrate Russell Group success

Sixth Formers at the academy secure places at a raft of top Russell Group institutions after receiving their A Level results earlier today.

Today, Sixth Formers and staff at Walthamstow Academy are celebrating after students won places at some of the UK’s top universities, following their A Level results.

Some of the school’s standout individual successes include:

  • David Pupla, who achieved three A*s in Computing, Mathematics and Physics, and will be attending the University of Manchester to study Computer Science.
  • Ylli Haliti, who achieved two A*s in Chemistry and Mathematics and one A in Physics, and will be attending Imperial College London to study Chemistry with Molecular Physics.
  • Deyna Mesuria, who achieved two A*s in Biology and Chemistry and one A in Mathematics, and will be attending the University of Bristol to study Physiological Science.
  • Redly Mireku-Boateng, who achieved one A* in Business and three As in Economics, Geography and Government & Politics, and will be attending King’s College London to study Law.
  • Jenai Allen, who achieved three As in Chemistry, Maths and Physics, and will be attending the University of Southampton to study Aerospace Engineering.

David said:

“My main piece of advice is to keep working hard and stay passionate about your A Levels. The more passion you have, the easier you’ll find it. Determination is key.”

Redly said:

“I’d like to thank the school and my teachers for providing me with the opportunities to succeed, and for giving me the resources to flourish. School has been an outlet for me to focus on and it has allowed me to gain the necessary skills to move on to the next step in life. Thank you WA.”

Jenai said:

“Thanks to my teachers, I was able to obtain great results but in order to achieve your best, you have to put the work in at home as well. I’m pleased to say I’m now going to study Aerospace Engineering at the University of Southampton.”

Emma Skae, Principal at Walthamstow Academy, said:  

“Our Sixth Formers have shown real determination and resilience over the past two years to achieve the outcomes they have today. Thanks to their hard work as well as the enduring support of our Sixth Form team, our students are now going on to study an impressive range of courses at some of the country’s top universities. As a school, we strive to make sure all our students not only set high ambitions for themselves but are able to achieve them. It is therefore excellent to see so many of our students securing their first-choice destinations today and being excited to take their next steps.”
