A-Level Results

*Source: The Guardian Online 2012

In 2012, QEGS boys bucked the national trend with 56.8% of grades awarded at A*/A grades - up from 2011

Mr David Craig "Despite the national squeeze on top grades, we have seemingly bucked the trend by producing near record results in excess of 81% A*-B. The vast majority have therefore got into their first choice universities amidst what remains an extremely competitive environment. I’m delighted for the boys, the staff who invariably go that extra mile and especially the long-suffering parents who always look the most nervous on results day!
