Today’s results build on last week’s A Level success which saw pupils at the school’s United Sixth Form secure places at top Russell Group institutions, including the University of Southampton and Queen Mary University of London.

Michelle Dyer, Principal of Avonbourne Boys’ and Girls’ Academies, said:

“We are very pleased with the results achieved by our Year 11 cohort this year, which reflects the hard work of students and staff over five years of education at Avonbourne. Thank you to our parents and carers who have been unwavering in their support of their child throughout this period. 

“This year group have been a particular joy to work with over their time with us – their positive attitudes and distinctive characters stand them in good stead to succeed in their futures, whichever pathway they are taking. We look forward to welcoming many of them back into our United Sixth Form in September where they will be continuing their study in an environment that they know well and where they feel at home and encouraged.”
