​​Esher Sixth Form College is pleased to report a 99.4% pass rate at A Level (68.4% A*-B grades). The proportion of students achieving the highest grades is particularly impressive, especially considering the challenges they faced in learning in the middle of a pandemic.  Students studying BTEC courses also achieved excellent results. An impressive 179 students achieved three or more A Levels at A* or A grade, with 48 students receiving 3 or more A* grades. A full breakdown of results will be available on our website in September.

Maddy Power, from Hinchley Wood School, achieved a Distinction* in BTEC Art & Design, an A* grade in A Level Media Studies, an A grade in A Level English Language and an A in her Creative Extended Project. She says “I’m delighted with the results I received this morning and I would not have been able to achieve them without the support of Esher Sixth Form College. My time here has been an unforgettable experience and I’m looking forward to exploring further into my areas of study during my GAP year.”

Bracken Johnston, from St. Paul’s Catholic College, received two C grades in Biology and History (Dictators and Imperialists), and a B grade in Psychology. Bracken says “I’m delighted to have been accepted by the University of Surrey to study Biomedical Science.

All of my teachers were so friendly and helpful and I really benefitted from their advice and help.”

Dan Hards, the College Principal, said, “I would like to congratulate our students and their teachers on Esher Sixth Form College’s outstanding 2022 examination results. Due to the pandemic, students were unable to take their GCSE examinations in Summer 2020, so for many, these A level and BTEC examinations were the first external assessments they had taken. To achieve such strong examination results in these circumstances is a huge credit to the whole College community. We wish all our students’ success as they move on to their next destination, whether this be higher education, employment, training, or an apprenticeship.”
