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.
Our students excelled across a wide range of subjects, with standout performances in Music and Music Technology, where every grade was at the top level, and in Biology, Psychology, English Literature, Geography and Modern Foreign Languages, all achieving 100% of grades at C or above.
Student Highlights
One highlight from this year is Ella, whose parents describe how Akeley transformed her confidence, gave her clarity about her goals, and provided countless opportunities for personal growth. She now heads to Bournemouth University to study Marketing with PR Studies — following in the footsteps of her sister, an Akeley alumna who recently graduated with a First and a place on the Dean’s List in Forensic Science.
Other students are taking equally exciting routes, from beginning a world-class hospitality degree in Montreux, Switzerland, to awaiting confirmation of sought-after degree apprenticeships in policing and fine furniture making.
Next destinations.
This year’s leavers are heading to an inspiring variety of destinations, including top universities, competitive apprenticeships and exciting entrepreneurial ventures. From Sociology at Durham University to Computer Science at the University of Birmingham, from Music at Royal Holloway to Psychology at Durham, their paths are as individual as they are — and we couldn’t be prouder.
