Academic work is at the heart of what we do at Repton School. Our aim is to allow each pupil to develop his or her potential to the maximum. This means setting the highest academic expectations for each Reptonian and then developing the systems to monitor and support each pupil’s individual progress. We believe that this allows pupils to achieve more than they could have imagined.
Reptonians continue to achieve consistent academic success, and we were once again delighted with the results achieved in external examinations by our pupils in 2011.
The 2011 A Level result achieved by our Upper Sixth were our best ever - more than a quarter of entries (28%) achieved an A* grade, almost two-thirds of entries (65%) achieved either an A* or an A grade and 84% were graded A*, A or B. Fifty seven pupils achieved straight grades at A* or A.
At GCSE, over a third of O-Block entries (34%) were awarded an A*, and five pupils received straight A*s in all of their subjects. Well over half of O-Block entries (63%) achieved either an A* or A grade.
In addition to the O-Block students who achieved these results, a number of A-Block candidates took Mathematics or French a year early. Once again these A-Block pupils achieved excellent results in 2011, with an impressive 86% of these entries achieving an A* grade.
These headline figures show Repton continues to achieve first class results throughout the pupil body, and across the wide range of subjects studied.
