Bradley Stoke Community School students celebrate excellent A Level results 

Bradley Stoke Community School is pleased to report some outstanding achievements by its students in their A levels and vocational qualifications this summer. This has been truly remarkable given the challenging circumstances of the past 18 months and we are delighted for them as they launch into the next stage of their education and careers. We are incredibly proud of what our students have achieved with the support of our fantastic staff, including our outstanding Post 16 guidance team. Their specialist knowledge has been a key factor in students applying for and gaining such fantastic opportunities at top Russell Group universities including three students gaining a place at Oxbridge. Students have also been successful at securing apprenticeships and these include an Engineering Degree Apprenticeship at GE Aviation and an Advanced Degree Apprenticeship at the MOD. Some particularly notable individual successes include: 

 Matthew Quilt who achieved 4A*s (Chemistry, Maths, Further Maths and Physics) and is starting a Physics degree at the University of Oxford. 

 Seb Deliot who achieved 4A*s (Biology, Maths, Further Maths and Physics) and is starting a Biomedical Engineering Degree at Imperial College London.

Whilst all of our students have made excellent progress from their GCSEs to A levels we would also like to highlight the following students who have made the most progress: 

 Gethin Harding Evans 

 Nihad Kadi 

 Matthew Claxton 

 Ashley Bryant

This year, following the cancellation of exams, grades were awarded through a process of teacher assessed grades, against a national standard and approved and awarded by the exam boards. The government is not publishing performance data for any schools or colleges this year due to the varying impact of the pandemic. 

Headteacher Steve Moir expressed his pride in the students’ achievement: “Our students and staff have worked incredibly hard and showed amazing resilience and commitment to achieve these results. We are very proud of how they have coped with such a difficult and disrupted year. Our teachers have worked tirelessly to ensure students are all able to progress onto further education and study, and we look forward to seeing what they will achieve in the future.” 

Assistant Headteacher and Director of Post 16, Tom Hill was delighted with the spectacular results students achieved. “I am thrilled that all the effort and relentless commitment that students have shown over the past two years has paid off.
