Delight as Students Celebrate A Level Results
It was a morning of elation at Prior’s Field, as the class of 2024 celebrated their exceptional A Level results across a breadth of subjects, securing places at Russell Group and top ranked UK universities.
The level of achievement delivered across a wide range of subjects has been significant, with over half of all students achieving a top grade (A*/A). Standout departments were Computer Science, Music, Russian, Textiles, Design and Technology, where all students achieved an outstanding 100% As and As.

Both students were the first Prior’s Field students to achieve a Gold Award in the Chemistry Olympiad earlier in the year. Christina’s Biology teacher, Kim Tooley commented:
“Christina is a quiet yet exceptionally gifted Biologist who thoroughly deserves to achieve her veterinary ambitions. We wish her all the very best for the future!“
Sky has completed her Art Foundation course and having gained two A*s and an A will be studying Fine Art at the University of Oxford. Divine, Prior’s Field’s outgoing Head girl will also be studying at Warwick, having achieved an A* and two As with Biochemistry her chosen course. Divine’s teachers were thrilled with her success, with Head of Chemistry, Dr McDonald Smith commenting:
“I’ve been teaching A Level Chemistry at Prior’s Field for 23 years and I can’t think of another student who has worked harder or smarter in preparation for A Levels than Divine.“
There was great celebration as students achieved their desired university destinations, with Georgie achieving two A*s and an A to study Graphic Design at Loughborough University, Maisy gained similar grades to study Business Management at the University of Leeds, whilst Jess heads to the University of Bath to study Physics with three As to her name.
