A Level Results Day

Despite the rain, and the added challenge of newly reformed A levels, South Hampstead High School students continued to shine this results day, with two thirds (67%) of entries awarded A*/As.

Over a third (36%) of students achieved a clean sweep of straight A*/As, with 41% of students achieving at least one A* grade. Students also excelled in the Extended Project Qualification (EPQ) again this year – the independent research project that allows students to explore their interests and ability beyond the A level curriculum. Over a quarter of Upper Sixth students took the EPQ this year, all achieving A*/As and an impressive 81% gaining the top A* grade.

These grades have secured students places at top universities on a diverse range of courses, with a broadly even split between those going on to study Science-based vs Humanities-based degrees. We are proud of all that the girls have achieved and all that they have contributed to the life and community of South Hampstead. We wish each and every student well as they embark on their next chapter and look forward to welcoming them to back to hear about their future successes.
