Misk Schools has announced a substantial year-on-year improvement in A-level results for its Class of 2026, with the proportion of students achieving the highest grades rising sharply against the previous year's cohort.
The percentage of A* grades increased by almost 200%, from 14.29% to 42.86%. Grades at A*–A rose by over 67%, from 40.82% to 68.25%, while A*–B grades increased by almost 18%, from 79.59% to 93.65%.
The results place students from the Class of 2026 on their way to some of the world's most competitive universities, with places secured at King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals (KFUPM) and King Saud University in Saudi Arabia, as well as international destinations including the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Stanford University, UC Berkeley, UC San Diego, Penn State, University College London (UCL), King’s College London and the University of Manchester, among others.
The Class of 2026 is the second cohort to have completed the Misk Schools Diploma, validated by Cambridge University Press & Assessment.
Dr Steffen Sommer, Director General of Misk Schools, said: "These results reflect years of resolve, character and hard work from our students, matched by teaching and support designed to give them every chance to succeed. The destinations our students are now heading to speak for themselves."
