Outcomes
Holyrood Academy is proud of the results that its students have achieved at both the end of Year 11 and the end of Year 13. At the end of both Key Stage 4 and 5, students leave us for a range of exciting destinations including top universities and higher apprenticeships with competitive employers.
GCSE Results 2024:
The following table shows the headline GCSE and Level 2 BTEC results achieved by our students over the past three years, with 2019 grades included as a pre-pandemic reference. Grades from 2020 and 2021 have not been included as they were awarded by teachers, not through public exams, making them incomparable with the years presented here. In 2022, some grade protection was still in place meaning that most grade boundaries were lower. This was a protective measure for students who had missed learning during the pandemic. In 2023, grade boundaries returned to normal.

Tomas Jenkin who achieved 6 grade 9s and 2 grade 7s
Vitoslava Barabolia who achieved 5 grade 9s, 1 grade 8 and 2 grade 7s
