A Level students at Devonport High School for Girls are celebrating fantastic results this year. 65% of all grades achieved were A*, A, or B.  It was impressive to see just over 15% of our students awarded A/A* grades across the board.   Once again, these results mean that DHSG is one of the country’s top mixed-sex state Sixth Forms for outcomes and is the highest performing in Plymouth and surrounding areas.

The school continues its high-achieving record of top university places and courses, with 4 attending Oxford or Cambridge universities, in addition to many of our students going on to Russell Group universities and take up places in employment.

The stand-out performances this year were achieved by Issy Adams, Ruth Bryce, Helia Eftekhari, Lily Entwhistle, Jahida Faruk, Katie Hambly, Grace Harrison, Isabelle Hutton, Ruby Jones, Niyara Limbu, Miao Lu, Lara Marshall-Roberts, Saphia Mkwawa, Imogen Rickard, Rose Sutton, and Martha Wilson who all obtained A* or A grades.

Assistant Head Teacher and Head of Sixth Form Ed Lamb said ‘Once again, this year’s results show that we are truly blessed at DHSG to be working with such a cohort of talented and diligent students. They have engaged with all aspects of their studies in such an impressive way and they will now go on to take their places in education or employment to lead in a range of fields.  My thanks also go to their teachers whose knowledge, expertise and experience have helped to nurture them from day 1.

Head Teacher Lee Sargeant said ‘many congratulations to students this year on their excellent results. I know they have worked tremendously hard over the past two years and deserve their successes today.  That our leavers have achieved so much in their time here is in no small measure and a tribute to their hard work and dedication.  My thanks also go to their teachers who taught and supported them in their A Level journey. I am extremely proud of our DHSG students and wish them all the very best in the next chapter of their lives.’
