Pate's Grammar School

Congratulations to our Class of 2026 for their outstanding A Level results today.

Out of a cohort of 272 students, 94% of grades are A*-B, with 79% A*-A Grades and almost half (43%) of all grades awarded being A*.

Headteacher Dr James Richardson says,
“We are immensely proud of all that our students have achieved. This year’s A Level results are testament to their hard work, talents and abilities, as well as the expertise and support of our teachers, tutors and mentors. The future is bold, bright and exciting for the Class of 2026, and we wish them continued success, fulfilment and happiness in all they go on to achieve.”

School’s out for summer... 🤩

Well done to our Charity Day Committee for an excellent fun final day… Happy holidays one and all - see you all in September for more !

Last week, we were delighted to welcome back Old Patesians Jo Hamilton and Natalie Wang to talk with our current Year 12 students.

Jo is currently enjoying a gap year before heading off to LSE to study Law this autumn, while Natalie has just completed her first year studying History and Politics at LSE.

A huge thank you to both Jo and Natalie for giving up their time to share their experiences, advice and insights from the past year. We're sure our students found it incredibly helpful as they start thinking about their own next steps!

They think it’s all over… it is now!
