Results & destinations

We are very pleased to publish the particulars of the College’s 2009 public examination results.

In particular, our A level results were outstanding, representing the best-ever academic performance by CATS students:

• 95% of all entries were A level passes
• 78% of all A level grades were in the range of A to C
• 60% were A to B and 38% of all passes were at Grade A.

This means that not only was the overall pass rate the best ever, but the quality of results was outstanding. To download a detailed breakdown of our A-level results by subject click here.

Destinations include the University of Cambridge, London School of Economics, Imperial College London, University of Warwick, University College London, University of Durham and University of York.

These results are testament to the hard work and dedication of our students and the outstanding academic teams within our Colleges.

Pre-A level results
Our Pre-A level students follow a diverse programme, taking a variety of courses including the core subjects of Maths, English and Science. Among those students, a small number of candidates sit the GCSE public exams after one year of study, with the following results: 39% of all entries were GCSE passes. 27% of all GCSE grades were in the range of A* to B and 14% of all passes were either A* or A.

Please contact the College if you would like a copy of the full set of A level or GCSE results.

Achieve 2 grades higher

Our students learn crucial study skills like speed reading, creative thinking, recall and memory enhancement.

These special methods of boosting the brain’s power help to explain our proven record of adding tremendous value to students’ results – a number of our students achieve exam results two grades higher than expectation, measured against nationally-standardised baseline assessments.

After years of experience and a track record of academic success, we are confident in claiming that our teaching methods:

• improve reading speed by 40%
• improve memory by 40%
• improve reading recall by 40%
• enhance creative thinking by a massive 200%

Here are just a few of our A-level students that have benefitted in January 2009 exams:

*The Advanced Level Information System (ALIS) provides performance indicators for post-16 students across all sectors of education and includes analysis of A level, AS level, Applied A-Levels, BTEC National and International Baccalaureate Examinations. ALIS is the original member of the family of value-added monitoring systems run at the Centre for Evaluation and Monitoring (CEM) at Durham University.  It has grown from only 12 schools in the northeast of England in 1983 to cover over a third of all A-Level entries in the UK and international schools sitting UK exams in this present year.
