We are incredibly proud of our Sixth Form students, whose hard work and commitment have enabled them to achieve an excellent set of results and embark on an exciting range of next steps.
Of our Year 13 cohort of 159 students, 84% have secured places at UK universities for 2026 or 2027, with 56% progressing to Russell Group universities. A further 10% of students are taking a gap year, reapplying for university entry in 2027 or choosing to study abroad.
Our students have secured places at universities across the UK, with some of the most popular destinations including Bristol (12 students), Manchester (9), Exeter (8), Leeds Beckett (6), Birmingham (5), Cardiff (5), Manchester Metropolitan (5), Surrey (5), Southampton (5) and Queen Mary University of London (5).
Students have secured places at the University of Cambridge and also on highly competitive Medicine, Dentistry and Veterinary Medicine degree courses.
Across the year group, students are progressing to an impressive range of degree courses, including Ancient History, English Literature, Economics, Environmental Science, Mathematics, Engineering, Computer Science, Film Studies and Politics, among many others.
These destinations reflect the ambition, breadth of interests and achievements of our students and continue the strong record of success at Orleans Park Sixth Form.
