The Perse School in Cambridge has reaffirmed its position as a top-tier educational institution following the release of this year’s A-level results. The academic performance of the Upper Sixth cohort has been nothing short of exemplary, with 95% of all entries achieving the coveted A* to B grade bracket. This consistent high-level output underscores the school's commitment to rigorous academic standards and tailored instruction.

Deep-diving into the metrics reveals a culture of profound intellectual ambition. Nearly 77% of all grades issued were A* or A, while 43% of students achieved the prestigious A* grade outright. Perhaps most notably, nearly two-thirds of the year group secured three or more A* or A grades, with nearly a quarter of the entire cohort achieving a clean sweep of at least three A* grades. This depth of success is reflected across a diverse array of disciplines, with more than 80% of entries in subjects ranging from Further Maths and Physics to Economics and Art achieving the top two grades.

Ed Elliott, Principal and Head of the Upper School, attributed these results to a synergy between the students' sustained focus and the school’s pedagogical and pastoral frameworks. He noted that the success is a testament to years of dedicated effort and serves as a fitting conclusion to the students' time at the school. Beyond the classroom, this cohort has been recognised for their active contributions to the school community, marking them as well-rounded candidates for future university and professional success.

These stellar results arrive shortly after The Daily Telegraph highlighted The Perse as the ‘best value’ independent school in East Anglia, a recognition based on the high quality of education delivered relative to its fee structure. For Oxbridge Education Group, this report serves as a reminder of the competitive standards maintained by elite UK institutions. As these students transition toward competitive higher education, the school remains committed to providing ongoing guidance regarding university applications and future academic planning.

The Perse School continues to act as a benchmark for excellence in the independent sector, providing students with the competitive edge necessary for entry into the world's most demanding degree programmes. For ambitious students looking to follow in these footsteps, The Perse remains a standout example of what can be achieved through a combination of institutional support and individual drive.
