The Queen’s School, Chester, is celebrating another outstanding year of A-level results, with almost 60% of all grades awarded at A or A* and every student securing a place at their preferred-choice university.

Nearly 90% of grades were at A*–B, with many students earning top marks in competitive subjects. STEM remains a particular strength, with nearly 80% of students choosing at least one STEM subject and over 90% of grades in those disciplines awarded at A*–B.

The school reported that 70% of students are progressing to Russell Group universities, with courses including Medicine, Veterinary, Law, and Biomedical Engineering, as well as Philosophy and Politics, Criminology, Graphic Design, Ancient History and Archaeology, and Art History.

Head, Joanne Keville, said: “We are immensely proud of each and every student. These results reflect not only their dedication and resilience, but also the expertise of our teaching staff and the strength of our supportive community, embodying our values of Honour and Wisdom. Our leavers take with them the spirit to think independently, collaborate confidently, and aspire globally, qualities that will serve them for life. At The Queen’s School, we know that an education designed for girls unlocks exceptional academic achievement while nurturing confidence, curiosity and leadership.”

The following girls received outstanding A-level grades achieving A*-A in three or more subjects. Congratulations to: Maahi Chauhan (A*, A*, A*), Emily Hay (A*, A, A, A), Anna Heyes (A*, A, A), Abigail Littlewood (A, A, A), Charlotte Oakden (A*, A*, A), Noor Randhawa (A*, A, A), Manon Wagenaar (A, A, A), Tamsin Watson (A*, A*, A, B), Alice Wu (A*, A*, A*, A*, A).

The school also congratulated a further 25 students on their results across a wide range of subjects.
