Results

Students in Rossall Sixth Form study for a variety of different curricular programmes including:

- A levels
- International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme
- IELTS
- BTECs 
- EPQ

Inevitably, the distribution of students (in terms of performance) varies across different courses from one year to the next.  

- Almost 50% of all A level, IBDP and BTEC grades resulted in an A*/A or equivalent
- Similarly, over 50% of Upper Sixth Formers achieved 144 UCAS  points (the equivalent of 3 A grades or above)
- 9 subjects achieved 100% A*-B grades at A level/BTEC or 6/7s with the IBDP.

International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme Average:   34 points  

(world average = 30 points)

Percentage of 6/7s = 43% (A*- A equivalent)

Well over a third of pupils achieved 36 points or above in total – equivalent to AAA at A-level

A*- A    44%

A*- B    66%

A*- C    84%

A*-E     99%

We acknowledge the achievements of those who graduate from Rossall with distinction (cum laude).This year just under half the cohort have achieved this accolade (ABB or equivalent)  and the results for these students are as follows:

A* 29%

A* – A 72%

A* – B 91%

Grade 6 – 7 at HL (equivalent to A*- A) 70%

Grade 4 – 7 (equivalent to A* – C) 99%

These students are invited back to a celebratory dinner in the Spring Term following their departure, They are invited to join the 1844 Valentini Society.

We place great importance on all public examinations and we are justifiably proud of the achievements of our Year 11 pupils. 

It is worth bearing in mind that, unusually, a  significant number of those taking GCSEs at Rossall are either sitting all of their examinations in a second language and/or completing the full programme of study in just one year  – in preparation for Sixth Form courses at Rossall.  When presenting our results, we make no distinction between those studying within the main School and those studying on the Pre-Sixth Form or Foundation programmes. 

Consequently, the combined averages for all those who sat GCSE examinations this summer were:

7-9     39%

6-9     61%

4-9     95%
