Students at Independent day and boarding school LVS Ascot, where young people are inspired to exceed expectations have done just that, with the Year 13 Class of 2022 celebrating a fantastic set of A-Level results, with an amazing 39 students being offered their first choice of university.

Bryan Padrick, Vice Principal and Director of Studies at independent all-ability LVS Ascot, discusses why his school views resilience as a fundamental requirement for human progress and success.

Ten new pupils began their school adventure at LVS Ascot on Wednesday 5th September, forming the Reception class at the Infant & Junior School. They will be taking part in a brand new initiative –€“ the LVS Ascot Junior School Diploma – and have already enjoyed the school’s impressive £820,000 dining hall refurbishment, which was unveiled last week.

Students at LVS Ascot are celebrating an excellent set of GCSE results, with the number of A* or equivalent grades rising to almost 10%. The English language and maths pass rates both also rose, to 99% and 94% respectively, with 99% of students who achieved at least 5 A* - C (or equivalent) GCSEs passing both maths and English.

Students at independent all-ability school LVS Ascot celebrated an increase in A* grades amongst their A level results, rising to 5.7% from 4.6% last year. The school’s overall pass rate was 98.3%, surpassing the national average of 97.6%.

August is a nerve-wracking month for Berkshire students with A level and GCSE results days looming. This year especially will be an anxious time for GCSE pupils with over 20 subjects using the 9–1 gradings instead of A*–G, and LVS Ascot Principal Christine Cunniffe is warning that they are set to play a bigger role than before in shaping students’ futures.
