We are extremely proud of our academic success and reputation, and we celebrate all our students’ personal achievements. Whilst A*s or Grade 9’s are wonderful, we believe the true value of a Babington education is found in those individuals who achieve a grade (or two) higher than they ever thought possible, or in a pupil who didn’t believe they could, who now knows they can.

Our Sixth Form students achieved a record number of A and A* grades at both A Level and AS Level in 2023.  At A Level, 52% of grades were awarded an A or A* grade, and 88% at AS Level.  We are thrilled that two of our budding scientists have been awarded places to study Medicine at University whilst other students have opted to study a wide range of courses such as PPE, History, Law and Business and Urban Planning at Universities including Sheffield, Loughborough, Reading and Exeter to name but a few.
