Students at a south east London private school have celebrated after 94 per cent of their grades were B or above.
Almost three quarters of grades were A* or A, allowing students to pursue degrees at Oxford, Cambridge and other Russell Group universities.
Headmaster Guy Sanderson said: “We are thrilled for and proud of our students for the grades they’ve achieved this year which are a true reflection of their dedication, determination and hard work – expertly guided and supported by their committed teachers.
“All our students deserve full credit and praise for the hard work they have put in and we wish them every success as they move to the next stage of their lives.”
Overall, achievement was higher than in 2019, the last set of A level results that weren’t affected by pandemic-related grade inflation.
The school said pupils studying Biology, Maths, Physics, Economics, Geography, Chemistry and Drama were particularly successful.
Established in 1842, Eltham College is a private day school in southeast London with alumni that includes radio host Nick Ferrari and Olympic runner Eric Liddell.
