Results and Ofsted

King Alfred’s Academy were delighted to pass on congratulations to our Year 11 class of 2025 who have achieved a pleasing set of results once more. Students demonstrated commitment, hard-work and resilience which has led to success across a broad curriculum for those who picked up their results today after five years of hard work. 

As a result of their efforts, 55% of our cohort have achieved at least 5 GCSE or BTEC qualifications including English and Maths at grade 4 or equivalent.

Nearly two thirds achieved a pass in both GCSE English and Maths – this ‘basics measure’ is crucial in terms of supporting access into further education and careers. An impressive 20% of all examination entries resulted in a grade 7 or better, 50% in a grade 5 or better and 67% of all entries culminated in a grade 4 or better.

Headteacher Jonathan Smart was again delighted with the A Level and BTEC outcomes for our fantastic King Alfred’s Sixth Form students this year. Nearly 30% of the grades at A-Level were an A*or A, with over 50% of BTEC grades being a Distinction* or Distinction. ‘This is an impressive set of results for the academy. These outcomes match our great results from last year, and are a clear indication of the sustained and consistent academic success obtained by students who attend the Academy’s Sixth Form. Again, this year, King Alfred’s Academy is one of the highest performing Sixth Forms in the region. I would like to congratulate all the students on these impressive results, and thank the staff for their efforts over the last two years.'

As well as impressive overall results, we also had some outstanding individual performances with three students achieving A*A*A*A, over 30 students achieving at least one A*, and 90 students achieving at least one grade A.

The Extended Project Qualification (EPQ) has again proved to be a popular and successful qualification for many students at King Alfred’s, adding an extra element to their academic profile, with an incredible 75% of the grades at A* or A. Our EPQ successes show that this is a key element of the curriculum offer at King Alfred’s Sixth Form.
