73% of pupils achieved grades A*-B, and almost 15% of pupils gained all A*/A grades.
Throughout their time at Cheltenham, pupils are encouraged to develop in five key areas,
known as the Cheltenham 5C’s; Character, Creativity, Curiosity, Community and striving for
Continuous Excellence. These 5C’s, alongside both pupil and teacher determination,
commitment and enthusiasm are brilliantly reflected in the results achieved.
Nicola Huggett, the Head at Cheltenham College said, “We congratulate our very hard-
working Upper Sixth pupils who have achieved great examinations results today. They have
put in a huge amount of effort and are rewarded with some excellent university places, both
here and in many prestigious institutions overseas. All our Cheltonians are very involved in
activities both in and outside the classroom, and this year group in particular have given so
much to local charities through this year, both in terms of volunteering and fund-raising.
We wish them every success in the future and on their behalf, I would like to thank their
teachers, tutors, house staff and all the wider support staff at the College who have helped
them to achieve their potential.”
Many of the 2024 leavers will now go on to study at university, with over 90% of pupils
getting into their chosen destination. Sights are set on horizons much further afield for
some, as Cheltenham College have seen increased interest in higher education overseas in
recent years. Supported by a dedicated Higher Education and Careers Department, pupils
are encouraged to explore all options available to them following their Cheltenham
education. This year in particularly, 16 Upper Sixth Form pupils and five past leavers have
received offers for higher education overseas. They have received an impressive, combined
total of 44 offers for over 10 different courses including: Medicine, Fashion Design, Life
Science, Psychology and Maths. Offers are from over 25 institutions across six countries.
There is a further cause for celebration for the 11 pupils that have been offered 18
scholarships and awards.
