August 2023

Executive Headteacher Mr Gray is pleased to announce another outstanding set of A Level and Level 3 Vocational results for The Piggott School in each of our Academic and Vocational courses.

The staff and students have all worked exceptionally hard over the past two years and this is reflected in the outstanding grades awarded.

Our A level pass rate was 99% with an outstanding 34% of grades at A* & A.

63% of our results were graded at A*-B, and 83.5% graded A*-C. The average point score per A level entry was 39 points using the QCA system, making the average grade a B.

Our Vocational Level 3 pass rate for Applied General qualifications was over 100%, with Distinction Star to Merit being 87%.

This once again shows our outstanding sixth form as a centre of excellence for Academic and Vocational learning.

Zac Slocombe, Year 13, said ‘I’m feeling over the moon with an A* in Business, A* in Geography and an A in Economics. I am eternally grateful for all the help and support from my teachers. I am heading off to Manchester to study Economics and Finance.

Jess Peck and Lara Branston are excited to study at Cambridge in the new academic year. Jess said ‘I am feeling ecstatic and slightly overwhelmed to achieve 4 A*s. I am looking forward to starting a degree in Computer Science’. Lara achieved 2A*s and an A. She was elated and plans to study Geography at Cambridge from September.

I wish all our students the very best for the future and thank all the teaching and support staff for their continued dedication and professionalism.
