Barr Beacon School is proud to announce strong A-Level achievements from our Year 13 students, with results showing improvement across all key measures.

This summer, one in five grades awarded were at the highest levels of A–A*, and more than half of all grades achieved were A*–B. Students studying Applied General qualifications also excelled, with the average grade awarded at Distinction+.  

Headteacher Mrs Hibbs said:
"We are incredibly proud of our students’ hard work, determination, and resilience. These results are a testament not only to their efforts, but also to the dedication of our staff and the unwavering support of parents and carers. Among this year’s many successes, R Woodhall achieved an A in English, an A in History and a Distinction* in Media Studies. M Singh earned an A* in Biology, an A in Chemistry and an A in Computer Science. A Singh secured a Distinction* in Business, an A* in Psychology and an A in Sociology. T Hunt achieved straight As in Biology, Chemistry and Mathematics, while J Doody earned Distinctions in both Business and Sports Science alongside an A in Psychology. We look forward to seeing what all of our students go on to achieve as they take their next steps into higher education, apprenticeships, or employment."

Miss Clarke Assistant Headteacher for Sixth Form said:

"It has been a privilege to see our Year 13 students grow into confident, capable young adults over the past two years. Their results reflect countless hours of dedication and commitment, both inside and outside the classroom. Beyond their academic achievements, they have been role models for younger pupils, contributing to our school community in countless ways. I have no doubt they will continue to make a positive impact wherever life takes them next."
