SQA Success August 2016

We are extremely proud of the success of all our learners this year. Our S4 students had an outstanding performance in this year’s National Qualifications. At National 5 level 63.5% achieved at least 5 awards which is a fantastic performance. At National 4 level 98.1% achieved at least 5 awards and a superb 98.7% achieved at least 5 awards at National 3. Well done to 19 of our learners who achieved 7 National 5 awards all at grade A. They are: Ben Allison, Marisa Barrack, Angeliki Biza, Joe Diamond, Emma Duncan, Emma Hay, Alannah Irwin, Abby McDuff, Michael McGee, Katie McGowan, Rachel McMullen, Ryan McSherry, Andrew Noble, Sophie O’Hare, Mark Pencovitch, Liam Reilly, Julia Shaw, Aileen Stewart and Alannah Thomas.

Adding to this success, this year’s S5 results were fantastic. 21.4% of S5 learners achieved 5 Highers, 43.4% achieved at least 3 Highers and 61.0% achieved at least 1 Higher.

Well done to 6 learners from S5 who achieved 5 Highers all at Grade A. They are: Seamus Bonner, Connor Brown, Lewis Duncanson, Sean Kennedy, Sean McGeachie and Conor O’Brien.

This year’s performance at S6 was also superb with an outstanding 30.3% of our learners achieving at least 1 Advanced Higher. In addition, 90% of our S6 pupils finished their time in Our Lady’s High School with Higher level qualifications. These results will give our young people a very strong basis to progress on to college, university, work or training.

Our congratulations go to all our learners this year. The hard work, commitment and dedication that has been put in by pupils, their families and staff has been rewarded. We look forward to celebrating the achievements of our learners at our Senior Awards Ceremony in September.

Well done everyone!
