BEST EVER A LEVEL RESULTS FOR CATERHAM SCHOOL PUPILS
A Level records have been re-written at Caterham School with over 70 per cent of results A* or A grades and 92 per cent at A* to B grades. Almost a third of all grades were the top A* grade and the average holding for a Caterham pupil in 2024 is A*, A, A. 15 pupils achieved straight A* grades. This summer’s results once again secure the School’s position in the academic premier league of UK schools.
Today’s topflight results secured impressive UK, US and global university destinations for Caterham pupils including a full scholarship at Princeton and an unconditional place at fellow Ivy League institution The University of Pennsylvania. Caterham pupils join the 50 Old Caterhamians currently studying at Oxford and Cambridge Universities and, for the second year running, 100 per cent of Caterham pupils applying for Medicine (8 pupils in 2024) secured their place. Overall, 85 per cent of pupils gained their first choice university place. 99 per cent of Caterham pupils remain at the School to complete their A Level studies after GCSE, reflecting the School’s commitment to our young people.
Ceri Jones, Headmaster, said: “I am thrilled that such a fantastic group of young people have realised their ambitions with this stellar set of results, the strongest in the School’s history. My warmest congratulations go to them, and of course their teachers and families who have supported them throughout. Incredible grades are only one measure of the success they have achieved whilst at Caterham –they have also thrown themselves into every aspect of school life here at Caterham, in the classroom, in creative and artistic performances and on the sports field, and in our important educational partnership work, and deserve to celebrate their significant success. I cannot wait to see what this group of talented young people go on to achieve in their lives and what difference they make to the world around them. I am proud that our pupils leave Caterham not just with great grades, but also great friendships and memories, a network of support and community that will last a lifetime and a real sense of purpose and confidence about who they are and how to thrive in the years to come”.
2024’s record-breaking A Level results follow a glowing ISI inspection Report in spring 2024 and a string of national awards for the School, including being named as the Times Educational Supplement (Tes) Best UK Independent Senior School in 2023 and Tes’ finalist for Best Independent Prep School in 2024.
This year’s A Level results include Caterham’s Sunflower Scholars who joined the school after fleeing Ukraine to escape the war. A total of 12 scholars were warmly welcomed into the School community in 2022. This year’s leaving cohort of pupils includes five Sunflower Scholars who now head off to continue their education at UK universities.
