Many congratulations to Ardingly’s Class of 2024, who have achieved among the College’s best ever Sixth Form results in non-Covid years, with record numbers achieving the top grades.  

A remarkable 26% of A Level and IB grades were at the top A* and 7 grades respectively.  The percentage of A Levels graded at A* stands at 24%, which is the College’s highest ever percentage of top grades, other than during the pandemic years (when public examinations either didn’t take place or were graded on a different scale).  

Particular congratulations are due to the 17 students who achieved A*, A*, A or higher, with two students achieving a remarkable four A*s. 

Overall, an outstanding 64% of results were awarded the top two grades of A*-A (A-Level) and 7-6 (IB), with an impressive  89% of grades at A*-B/7-5.   

The overall average for the cohort of Ardingly students who sat the IB Diploma this summer was 38.9, which is the highest ever score in non-Covid years and should easily secure Ardingly’s usual position in the top 10 schools in the UK for the IB Diploma. 

Ardingly also offers BTECs, a more vocational qualification, in two subjects (Business Studies, Sports Management) and we are delighted to report that 61% of those were awarded the very top grade of Distinction *, with 100% achieving the top two grades of D*/D. 

With these results, Ardingly’s Class of 2024 have successfully secured their places at leading Russell Group universities including Oxford, Cambridge, Imperial College London, the London School of Economics, Durham, Bristol, Edinburgh and Exeter, as well as at some of the most prestigious universities in North America, Europe and Asia.
