A LEVEL RESULTS DAY 2024
Head, Rebecca Brown: “We are unashamedly ambitious for all our students at Northwood, so I am delighted to announce that 53% of this year’s Year 13 grades are at A* and A and 75% of the grades are at A* – B.”
With 100% of grades for subjects, such as, Physics, Further Maths, Art, Latin and Religious Studies at A* and A grades, the results are a true testament to the dedication and hard work demonstrated every day by our students and teachers alike.” Mrs Brown and her team are also looking forward to welcoming the Year 11 students back into school next week to celebrate their GCSE results. The cohort will have the opportunity to celebrate their Additional Maths qualification results, also received by the school today and revealing that 100% of the students have achieved the top score.
Mrs Brown said: “We have very high expectations for ourselves and for all our girls, which is why we were particularly proud to announce last month that we have been shortlisted for the third consecutive year for the Independent Schools of the Year Awards.”
Northwood College students immerse themselves in their subjects, always motivating and championing one another to excel. True advocates for girls’ education, Northwood teachers are passionate, innovative educators, who ignite intellectual curiosity and unlock an insatiable thirst for discovery whilst stretching and challenging each student to be her very best self.

Our students are NWC girls for life, and we look forward to sharing their future successes with them; I was particularly thrilled today to receive the results of four of last year’s leavers, who we went on to support with their applications for medical courses, and who have now been accepted on to their chosen medical and veterinary schools.”

Embarking on a lifelong love of learning and emboldened to talk out on issues that matter to them, these students are set to live lives of purpose, integrity and impact – happy and ambitious young women with fire in their bellies, and ready to reshape the world!
