Harrodian students are celebrating outstanding A Level results and are justifiably proud of their performance.

Despite a mood of national doom and gloom, Harrodian is delighted to announce an impressive set of results. With 66% of all grades at A*/A and 89% at A/B, it has been a happy day for much of the cohort. 4 students achieved straight A*s (13 between them) whilst 35 were awarded straight A*/A grades.

Keen to acknowledge our students’ success, Headmaster Mr Hooke says, “This year group has been incredibly accomplished, not only in their studies and examination results but also in their interests and aspirations, making them such well-rounded and engaging individuals. I would very much like to thank their parents, teachers and all those at Harrodian who have worked hard to support them. Congratulations to them all!”

The Class of 2023 Harrodian students are now off to study at leading universities in the UK and around the world, on courses ranging from Engineering at Cambridge to Economics at the University of Chicago, and Psychology at Exeter to Neuroscience at King’s College London.  The quality of their destinations is impressive, and the broad range of their course choices reflects the continuing diversity of our students’ interests and passions.

Head of Sixth Form Alison Heller adds, “We are delighted with these outstanding results - our students should be exceedingly proud of what they have achieved during their time in Sixth Form. That so many of them have already been accepted to their first-choice university is a testament to their hard work, commitment, and determination. We look forward to sharing the full examination results and list of destinations in due course."
