MBS Sixth Form received its fourth set of A Level results in August 2024. As ever, there was a particularly strong performance in the STEM subjects, with 31% of students who studied Mathematics awarded with A*-A. The success continued in the Humanities and Modern Foreign Language subjects, with 83% of students studying History achieving A*-C grades and 75% of students studying Spanish achieving A*-C.
Furthermore, this year one pupil has secured a place at the University of Cambridge and another student will be going to the University of Oxford. They are the first MBS Sixth Form students to achieve this accolade.
Whilst we celebrate the collective effort of our pupils, there were some standout individual performances. Special mentions go to the following students who achieved outstanding results:
