Pipers Corner School is delighted to announce an increase in A and B grades at A Level this year. 58% of all results were at grades A and B, and almost a third of results were at the highest A grade. Both statistics reflect an improvement on last year's figures and we are extremely proud of all the girls and their achievements.

There were a number of notable individual achievements with several girls achieving straight A grades. A number of girls also gained the maximum marks possible in one or more of their modules.
