Students at Sandy Upper School achieved a record breaking 81% 5+ A*-C grades (including English and Mathematics) in 2014, with many achieving 13+ A*-C grades. At A Level, 99% of students achieved a pass. Principal, Ms B Hare, congratulated all students on this remarkable outcome, saying,

“Our GCSE results this year are truly spectacular and all students have made outstanding progress! This outstanding outcome is significantly above the national average of 59% (2013) and a massive improvement from last year. These are, by far, the highest results in the history of the school, and the history of Bedfordshire, and many other Eastern region counties. With an improvement of 27% from last year (54% 2013) we will easily be one of the most improved schools in the COUNTRY, if not, THE most improved, this year.  Our excellent OFSTED inspection in July, the 99% pass rate for A Levels and these exceptional GCSE outcomes, show that we have now created an exceptional school!”
