Exceptional A Level Results
|
 
Walthamstow Hall students have achieved the school's best ever set of A level results this year with an incredible 68% of exams passed at A grade and 84% at A and B Grades.
There was a 100% pass rate with girls achieving an average of 3.7 passes. A third of pupils gained straight A grades across all subjects and more than 50% earned more than 400 UCAS points.
