We are delighted to celebrate the outstanding A-Level results of our Class of 2026, with strong academic results, exceptional individual achievements and students securing places at some of the UK’s most prestigious universities.

This year, 211 Year 13 students received their A-Level results at d’Overbroeck’s, marking the culmination of two years of hard work, ambition and determination, supported by our dedicated teaching staff and the encouragement of parents and families.

A-Level Results 2026 – Key Highlights

  • 43.7% of all grades were awarded at A*–A
  • 72.3% of all grades were awarded at A*–B
  • 25% of students achieved three or more A*/A grades
  • Over 200 students are holding university places, with the vast majority of our graduating students choosing to continue to higher education.

Andrew Colclough, Head of Sixth Form, commented:

“It has been such a pleasure to see so many smiling faces amongst students, parents and teachers in the Sixth Form as we celebrate outstanding achievement.

“With over two hundred students leaving us and the vast majority choosing to go on to university, we say a bittersweet farewell to our students who can now embark on the next exciting adventure in their lives. We are incredibly proud of the knowledge, skill and confidence they have developed over the last two years and will miss them enormously.

“It is a huge team effort from students, parents and staff to get to this point and I would like to thank the wider staff body for their incredible hard work and inspiration working with this year group.”

Chris Bromham, Principal, added:

“We are absolutely delighted with this year’s fantastic A-Level results and incredibly proud of everything our students have achieved. These results are a testament to their ambition, determination and hard work, as well as the dedication and commitment of our teaching staff who have supported them throughout their time at d’Overbroeck’s.

“It is wonderful to see so many of our students achieve such strong results and have their efforts rewarded. Behind every grade is an individual achievement and a great deal of hard work, and today is an opportunity to celebrate all that this remarkable group of young people has accomplished.

“We congratulate every one of our students and wish them every success and happiness as they take their exciting next steps beyond d’Overbroeck’s.”

In a city internationally renowned for academic excellence, d’Overbroeck’s stands apart through its highly personalised approach to Sixth Form education. Small classes, close relationships between students and teachers and a strong emphasis on independence enable our students to pursue their individual ambitions, develop confidence and achieve outcomes that open the door to exciting futures.

These results are a celebration not only of academic achievement, but of the individuality, ambition and determination of our students and the staff, families and wider d’Overbroeck’s community who have supported them along the way.

Congratulations to the d’Overbroeck’s Class of 2026 – we are incredibly proud of everything you have achieved.
