Exam Results

Northwood College's GCSE and A Level results have been excellent once again in 2011.

At GCSE, 32% of all grades awarded were an A*. Two pupils (Claire Middleton and Nikkita Mitchell) achieved a superb nine straight A*s and 13 girls received all A*/As. Nikkita Mitchell had already gained an A* in Dance last year (outside school) bringing her total to an amazing 10 A*s. Overall 66% of all grades awarded were A*/A and the A*- C pass rate was 100%. Other notable achievers were Helen Middleton, Meera Kalan, Nicole Kaneria, Tiru Sivashankar, Amisha Kota, Asha Pandit, Avneesh Poonia and Nikita Radia who all achieved 10 A*/As.

At A Level, we achieved a 100% pass rate at grades A-E, 71% of girls achieved grades A*-B and nearly all have gone on to their first choice university. Six girls gained 3 A*/As, whilst Elysia Cook gained 4A*/As. Elysia will be reading Law at Nottingham University. This year Northwood College girls are going on to study a wide range of degrees at some of the UK's top universities including Medicine, Law, Economics and Architecture.

Jacqualyn Pain, Head Mistress commented: "Our GCSE and A Level results are once again very strong and I congratulate the girls on their achievements. Our results show that our ground-breaking approach to Thinking Skills, coupled with traditional academic rigour, leads to our girls achieving top exam grades".

Exam Certificates

Students are invited to a celebratory Presentation Evening in the Autumn Term when certificates are issued; those who are unable to attend the Presentation Evening are required to collect their certificates in person from the Exams Office. Students who have left the School, should contact Mrs Kelly, to arrange a collection appointment. It is important that certificates are collected within one year of the Presentation Evening, as unclaimed certificates are returned to the Examining Boards for secure keeping. Past students who have lost their certificates must contact the Examining Boards directly to obtain copies of certificates.
