Congratulations to all the Upper Sixth students who received their A Level results (or equivalent) today and have now secured places at universities or nailed down result-dependent apprenticeship schemes or offers of employment.
Reigate College students once again received outstanding A Level results, with 61.1% achieving high grades A* to B and 84.5% achieving A* to C.
Some of our headline figures:
- 82.5% of students achieved at least one high grade (A-B or Distinction-Distinction)
- Over 100 students received a clean sweep of all A or A* grades, for all 3 or 4 of their A Levels
- 444 students achieved a full house of A* to B for A Level or Distinction/Distinction* for BTEC
- 12 students have had offers confirmed for Medicine or Veterinary Science, with 80% of those receiving offers, gaining places
- 100% of all students who did the triple in Performing Arts (3 A Level equivalent) achieved a high grade (Distinction* to Distinction)
Principal Nick Clark, said, “It’s been another phenomenal year, with students having secured places on the most competitive and at top universities, including Oxford and Cambridge and other Russell Group universities. A growing number are opting for high-quality apprenticeship programmes, and carefully targeted career areas, thanks in part to the specialist support they receive through our excellent Pathways Programme. A huge well done to our 2026 leavers and a massive thank you to our staff for all they do, year-round, to prepare our students for life after College.”
With so many students doing brilliantly, it’s extremely difficult to single out individuals to give a special mention to. Instead, we’ve decided to compose a short, representative reel of some of the students who received one or more of our 2026 Principal’s Awards.
These are awarded for Outstanding Contribution to a Subject, or Contribution to the College Community (e.g. by being a Student Mentor, member of the Students’ Union or an Activity Ambassador). Together with other awards such as DofE, and a new award for Exceptional Resilience and Unwavering Determination, collectively, these awards recognise and celebrate a full range of achievements.
Nick Clark added, “Educational success is not just about achieving high grades, however important they might seem, it’s also about producing rounded, resilient and considerate individuals who are prepared for whatever life might throw at them.”
