Guildford County Sixth Form Celebrates Best A Level Results in School History
Guildford County School is proud to announce that this summer’s A level results are the best in our history – by a significant margin. At 40%, close to half of all grades awarded were at A* or A, placing our students among the very top performers nationally and opening doors to some of the most competitive and prestigious university places and apprenticeship opportunities available.
For students and families considering where to study for A levels, these results underline why Guildford County Sixth Form is such a strong choice. We offer a track record of exceptional teaching, personalised support and a vibrant, ambitious learning community that equips students to excel in any path that they choose.
This year’s success is all the more remarkable given the challenges this cohort faced earlier in their education due to the pandemic. Our students have shown determination, resilience and a commitment to excellence that will serve them well in the years ahead. The results also reflect the strength of partnership between our school, our families and our wider community and the unwavering dedication of our outstanding staff.
We are especially proud of our top-performing students:
Hayden Cheung – 4 A* grades in Maths, Further Maths, Chemistry, and Physics
Isobel Kirkwood – 3 A* grades in Biology, History, and Psychology

Beyond individual successes, 3 of our students have secured places to study at Oxford; 7 students have secured places to read medicine; 1 has been offered a place at Musical Conservatoire. All of this alongside a range of high-quality apprenticeships, gap years and other professional opportunities.
Headteacher Steve Smith said:
“These results are a proud moment in the history of our school. They show that with the right support, high expectations and a community that works together, our young people can achieve at the very highest level. For anyone considering their next step after GCSEs, Guildford County Sixth Form offers the teaching, environment and opportunities to succeed.”
