She said: “Our results show that high standards from previous years have not only been maintained but in some areas improved still further: Six per cent of grades awarded were at the new level 9 with an incredible 25 per cent of grades 7- 9, the old A-A*.

“22 9s were awarded in history and 24 in English literature. We are particularly pleased the core subjects of English, maths, French, history and the 3 sciences achieved very strong results, 80 per cent passing on the new standard, giving students a very strong basis for the next stage in their journey.”
