CELEBRATING RECORD RESULTS IN 2017 

2017 exam results confirm continuous academic improvement 

Our aim is to improve grade outcomes for our pupils without compromising the breadth of opportunities that is the hallmark of life at Ardingly. The fruits of the hard work of our students and teachers can be seen in consistent grade improvement over the last five years, which is illustrated below.

Congratulations in particular to the 2017 GCSE, A Level and IB students who posted the best ever College results, and more importantly secured excellent grades with which to progress to the next stage of their education. School has been about much more than just grades for them, so it is wonderful to celebrate these results alongside everything else they have achieved and experienced at school.
