A Level Results 2025

Borlase are celebrating an excellent set of A Level, BTEC and EPQ Results this year.  Congratulations are due to each and every one of our Year 13 students who received their A Level and BTEC results today. 17% of grades awarded were A*, 53% were A*/A, 82% were A*/B, and 95% A*/C.

Over 90% of students have taken up places at their preferred higher education destinations to study courses including Biomedical Sciences, Engineering, English, Medicine, and International Golf Management representing the diversity of our students interests and abilities!  9 students will take up places at the universities of Oxford and Cambridge, 2 students who will be studying overseas in the USA and France, 2 students are taking up employer-based degree apprenticeships, and 4 students going to the prestigious Trinity Laban and Rambert dance conservatoires.  11 students achieved 3 or more A*s in their examined subjects.

130 students completed EPQs conducting research investigations into topics from Medicine to the Witch Trials in the reign of James I, 90% of whom achieved A* or A grades. A further 10 students achieved a Distinction or Distinction* in their BTEC Technical Theatre qualification, taken alongside their A Levels and supporting the sound, lighting and staging of the many school performances through their studies over the last two years.

No student is defined by their exam grades alone and the contributions made to school life by this cohort of students through their time at Borlase in sport, house activities, running societies, mentoring younger students, and performing in music, dance and drama are testimony to the contributions that they will make to wider society in the future. Through all this, they have worked incredibly hard for their exams and these grades are a fine reward not only for their effort and determination but also the excellent work by the staff who have taught them and supported them over the last two years.  

We wish each student every happiness and continued success for the next exciting stage of their learning and lives.
