Pupils are celebrating after another year of excellent A level results - by far the best results in the school's history. Whilst maintaining a 100% pass rate, 62% pupils achieved A grades and 87% achieved AB grades. These figures are likely to rise once all re-marks are complete - the full set of results will be published online in the next few weeks.

- Pupils who chose to study creative subjects; Music, Art, Drama and Design, also performed exceptionally well with 76% achieving grade A and 97% an A or B grade.

- Canford pupils studying Music, Art, Latin, German, Spanish and Chinese achieved 100% A grades.
