A LEVEL RESULTS 2017 

Students and staff at Walton High School are celebrating today after an outstanding set of A-level results. 

Performance at the higher grades was particularly impressive with 25% of the papers receiving the very highest grades of A* or A and the overall pass rate was 98%. 

Head teacher Neil Finlay commented: “I am absolutely thrilled with this excellent set of results. I am particularly pleased that the hard work of our A Level students, not forgetting the support of their parents and teachers, has been rewarded. This year group have been a pleasure to teach and I know that they will go on to achieve great things in their lives.” 

There were some outstanding individual results including Gemma Cairns-Smith who achieved 4 A*s and an A; Ellie Coverdale, Anna Lee-Gorton, Katie Lord and Emily Milan who all achieved 3 A*s and an A and Megan Price and Will Silverwood who both achieved 2 A*s and 2As. We are also delighted that Gemma, Ellie and Emily all gained the grades that they required to take up their Oxbridge places.

Early indications for 2018 are looking extremely positive too with Sanal Bhatia, Natalie Brown, Kate Perrins, Matthew Perrins and Sofia Wojciuk all achieving a perfect 4As in their AS examinations.
