Our A-Level Maths & Further Maths students certainly did us proud in their exams. With 100% of Further Maths students and 71% of Maths students achieving A*–B grades at The Elms Academy, their outstanding effort and dedication have truly paid off.

With offers to study Maths, Finance, Economics and more at some of the UK’s finest universities, we are incredibly proud of our students and excited to see our new alumni thrive in their further education.

“I’m so grateful to all my teachers who helped me on this journey and am thrilled with my results. They’ve given me a real chance to achieve my goals and build a successful life for myself.”

Students gave glowing reviews of our Sixth Form after receiving their A-Level grades on Results Day.

We are delighted with the outstanding results our students have achieved in their A-Level exams and cannot wait to see what they go on to accomplish in their future education.

“Every year we are incredibly proud of our Sixth Formers – not only for some brilliant qualifications but also for everything they have learnt, accomplished and contributed during their time at The Elms Academy. Many of these Year 13s have been with us all the way through since Year 7 but others have joined with our Sixth Form and have quickly become valued members of our school community.

As our Sixth Form has continued to grow and thrive, it has been wonderful to see the strong successes in destinations continue year on year, whether it is students gaining places to the UK’s top universities or those who secure excellent placements and further training offers. The variety of interests and depth of talent contained within this cohort is clear to see.

These young people have worked so hard and this is a day we are all thrilled to be celebrating with them as they take their next steps – happy and confident in their abilities. I know our staff will want to join me in congratulating them all and I want to take the opportunity to thank our staff team in return for their dedication and ambition for every student.”
