A Level Exam Results 2025

Our A Level results reflect the hard work of all students and staff with 72% of all grades this year being awarded at A*B - and 27 students achieving all A* and A grades. Results alone do not define our students who are courageous, kind, and independently-minded individuals, determined to go out into the world and make it a better place. Most take up places at universities across the country, including Oxford and Cambridge, with 56% of those attending Russell Group universities. Others will begin apprenticeships in a range of fields including nursing and business management. Students have chosen to explore a wide range of courses: Medicine, Marine Biology, Aerospace engineering, Biochemistry, Architecture and Law to name but a few.

GCSE Exam Results 2025

NHGS students are celebrating their GCSE success this year as grades have risen again. Over two hundred grade 9s were awarded, with over a third of grades being grade 8 and above and over half the grades were at grade 7 (which used to equate to an A grade).   

These students who ended their primary education abruptly and began their secondary education in “bubbles” with curriculum restrictions due to Covid. They have risen to every challenge, supporting each other along the way and we are very proud of all that they have achieved this year and over the years. They have not only studied hard, but have also engaged in a wide range of extra-curricular pursuits and activities across a wide range of interests from the arts to sports, from debating to ethics, from Amnesty to Formula 1 design. 

The vast majority of these students will now continue to pursue their interests and broaden their horizons in the sixth form at NHGS and we look forward to welcoming them back in September. We will also be welcoming new students into this happy and hard-working collective and look forward to providing all students with further opportunities to broaden their horizons as they continue their journey with us.
