With 100% pass rate for Cathnor Road school's founding year pupils

2018 is a special year at Hammersmith Academy, as its founding year pupils who joined the school in Year 7 when it opened in 2011 have now taken their A Levels.

Those founding year students didn't disappoint, with 45% achieving A* to B grades, 75% A* to C, and all students passing all subjects.

Subjects where students had shown most success included English literature, maths, history, sociology and media.

The Cathnor Road school in also achieved its first Oxbridge placement. After achieving A* in economics and As in maths and geography, Amari Drysdale, pictured below, is heading to the country's most famous university to read economics and management.

"I’m so grateful all that hard work has paid off – what you put in is truly what you get out," said Amari.

Headteacher Gary Kynaston, pictured below celebrating with students, said: “We are all over the moon with the outstanding results our students have achieved this year.

“This cohort of A-Level students were our founding Year 7 students when the Academy opened.

"For our first Oxbridge place to be attained, along with the large number of secured Russell Group university places, is a real testament to the Academy’s approach to a well-rounded education.

"I thank our staff for their unwavering dedication and to the parents who have supported their children and the Academy."
