Our all-encompassing Future Ready program and A-Level curriculum ensure that students are ready for university, degree apprenticeships or first steps into their chosen career and have the academic results, confidence and strength of character needed for their next adventure beyond Akeley. View the latest A-Level results and university destinations.
We are incredibly proud of all our AW6 graduates who have worked tirelessly to achieve tremendous results in their A Levels this year. Each student’s journey at Akeley Wood has been unique, and their success stories are a testament to their dedication, talents and the supportive, values-led environment we strive to create.
2026 Highlights include:
100% A*-B - Computer Science, Fine Art, DT and Music Technology
100% A*- C - Geography and History
In an age where we are told that the learning of modern foreign languages is on the decline it is also wonderful to report 100% A*- B grades achieved in French, Spanish and Russian. Maths students also achieved an impressive 71% A*/A with many going on to read mathematically related degrees at university.
Student Highlights
Two of the top achievers of 2026, were friends Naomi and Jake, who both secured their first choice Universities for their future studies. Naomi achieved A*AA, and is off to study Microbiology at the University of Leeds, and Jake, who achieved A*A*A, is looking forward to taking a Gap Year, before studying Geography at Lancaster University.
Other students are taking equally exciting routes, from awaiting confirmation on sought-after apprenticeships to embarking on a wide range of degrees at universities across the country.
