Peterborough schools and colleges ranked by 2023 A-Level results

This week, thousands of young adults from across our region will, finally, find out their A-Level exam results.

While some may be delighted with their grades, and others not so much, it is without doubt a milestone moment which deserves to be celebrated, regardless of what results are achieved.

As always, the achievements of this year’s students will be compared to those of previous cohorts.

With this in mind, we thought it prudent to remind ourselves how well Peterborough’s schools and colleges did in 2023 in terms of A-Level results.

The data used to compile our rankings was provided by the government, which assessed 15 secondary schools/colleges in Peterborough on the performance of their 16 to 18-year-old students.

Data for six Peterborough schools/ colleges – including Ken Stimpson Academy – was not available.

It is important to note that school and college performance data for the 2022/2023 academic should be viewed with caution as qualifications returned to pre-Covid standards during that academic year. Performance measures that are based on qualification results reflect this, and so cannot be directly compared to measures from 2021/2022.

It is also important to note that the ongoing impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic affected individual schools, colleges and students differently.
