Seventeen pupils, nearly a quarter of the Upper Sixth, achieved straight A or A* grades in their A-Levels in 2011, 3 pupils gained 3 A* grades.

13% of all the A-Levels taken at the School was awarded the A* grade - for marks of above 90% - while 91% were at grades A*-C. The School also recorded a 100% pass rate (A-E) among the 70 boys in the year - for the seventh consecutive year.

There were many successes among the large number of the Upper Sixth who will be proceeding to university this year, including:

• Two pupils who won places to study Dentistry at university and one to study Medicine, thereby maintaining the School’s longstanding reputation for putting boys on the path to a successful medical career.
• Imperial, Warwick (two), UCL (one), LSE (three), York (two), Birmingham (four), Nottingham (three), Durham (two), Manchester (two) and Exeter (two).
• Business Management (seven), Dentistry (two), Mathematics (two), Economics (four), Engineering (five), History (four), Law (four) and Politics (three).

Significant statistics among the results for our 93-strong Year 11 cohort include:

• 24% of all GCSEs taken at JLS were awarded A* grades
• 65% of our GCSEs were awarded at A* / A grades
• The A*- B rate exceeded 90%
