HABS Students Celebrate A-Level Success
Students at Harris Academy Battersea are today celebrating their excellent A-Level and vocational course results after putting in exceptional amounts of effort over the past two years. Over half of the students (60%) have secured a place at their top choice university.
Among those celebrating their results today is Dalia, whose diligence and strong work ethic has led to her achieving one A* and two As in her A Levels. She has secured a place to study Philosophy, Politics and Economics at the University of Oxford and will be the first in her family to attend university when she begins her course this autumn.
Other students celebrating their achievements today include:
- Cindy who achieved two A*s and one A securing a place to study Mathematics at King's College London
- Jamal, who achieved one A* and two As and will be going on to study Computer Science at Queen Mary University of London
- Hanna who achieved one A* and two As and will be going on to study Economics at Queen Mary University of London
- Zora who achieved one A* and two As and will be going to study Pharmacology at Queen Mary University of London
- Sarah who will be completing a degree apprenticeship in Computer Science
- Gavin, who achieved triple As and will be going to King’s College Hospital to study Pharmacology.
“I’m so happy," said Hanna after learning she had the grades she needed to study Economics at Queen Mary University. "I’m relieved I got into Queen Mary and I’m beyond happy with my results. I don’t think I would’ve made it especially without Mr Ogunlehe and Miss Chisolhm! Please say thank you so much to my teachers.”
Over half of the HABS students (60%) have secured a place at their top choice university, thanks to their results.
“Despite the challenges faced post-Covid, our students sat their first set of externally assessed exams this summer and have shown their knowledge, integrity and resilience throughout," said Miriam Bello, Head of Sixth Form at Harris Academy Battersea.
"As a Sixth Form that strives to create an inclusive educational environment, we are proud that our students from different backgrounds have achieved such great success. We would like to thank staff and parents/carers for the support they have shown the school and for being so adaptable in times of great change. We wish all our students who have succeeded in education and beyond more success in their future endeavours.”
