'A' Level Results Day 2024
Results Day provided a great opportunity for staff and parents to gather in the Assembly Hall and celebrate the success of the pupils of Larne Grammar School at AS and ‘A’ Level.
At GCE ‘A’ Level, 82% of Year 14 pupils achieved the key measure of 3 A*-C grades. Thirteen students gained at least 3 A grades. The highest achiever was Keilan McCord, formerly of Linn Primary School, with an impressive 4 A grades in Chemistry, Digital Technology, Mathematics and Physics. He intends to continue his studies at Queen’s University, Belfast where he will read Physics.
Zoe King, formerly of Moyle Primary School, was awarded 3 A*s in Geography, Health and Social Care and Life and Health Science. She will now study Nursing at Queen’s University, Belfast.
Andrew Kale, Rebecca Lyle and Emma McCullough gained 2 A*s and an A grade, while Ilaria Magee, Jenna Reid, Paul Rolston and Zoe Whitford each obtained 1 A* and 2 As.
A further four pupils – Chloe Boyd, Reuben Fokkens, Olivia Gordon and Heather Nugent – secured 3 A grades.
At AS Level, Isla Allen and Taylor Black were awarded a full complement of 4 A grades.
A further thirteen students – Charlie Burgess-Allen, Margaret Cross, Maria Gilmartin, Sophie Henderson, Georgia Hunter, Evie Lavery, Caila Looney, Jamie McDowell, Lauren McKeown, Noah McKinven, Ashton McNally, Aaron Mitchell and Jonathan Taggart, achieved at least 3 As.
Commenting on these results, Mr Jonathan Wylie, Principal of Larne Grammar School said,
“A Level results day is one of the highlights of the school year and it has been lovely to celebrate with our pupils this morning.
This is the first time that CCEA has returned GCSE and ‘A’ Level grading to pre-pandemic levels yet, despite the decrease in outcomes across Northern Ireland, we are delighted at the success that the pupils in Larne Grammar School have achieved. It is gratifying to witness the success of individual pupils who have worked so hard throughout their time in the School. I wish our leavers every success for the future.”
