Class of 2025 Celebrate A Level Results

A reflection of hard work, resilience, and a determination to succeed (Whole School - 14/08/2025)

At Meden School, part of the Nova Education Trust, we are always proud of our students’ achievements. Today, we are especially proud of our Year 13 students who collected their A-Level results. All students have done tremendously well, and those who aspired to attend university succeeding in securing a place at their first-choice university, including some of the top Russell Group institutions. These students will leave Meden and go on to study all across the country; Megan is going to Durham to study Chemistry, Alyesha to Northumbria to study Biomedical Sciences and Dominic to Aberdeen to study Engineering. We also have multiple students who are going on to do apprenticeships or are going straight into a career, including Simran who is working with Royal Mail, Elliott with Network Rail, and Tristan with the RAF. These are just a few of our fantastic students, all of whose accomplishments demonstrate the school values of aspiration, excellence and achievement.

It is important to acknowledge the challenges faced by students during their A-Levels. Many of our students have faced difficult personal circumstances during their time at Meden College. However, with resilience and determination, they have gained fantastic results in spite of these challenges. One of our students, Katie was forced her to re-take a year due to a major operation. In spite of this, she was delighted to be off to her first-choice university, Lincoln, where she will go on to study Journalism.

It is also heart-warming to see how the students at Meden College have supported each other throughout their A-Level studies. We hope that the great friendships they have made during their time here will persist long into the future. This year, we were lucky enough to have twins Bobbie and Tom study with us, who both achieved amazing results and who will both go on to complete apprenticeships in their chosen fields. This is despite Tom having a BMX accident before the start of his exams which resulted in him breaking multiple bones and puncturing a lung. We are so proud of them both and how they have supported each other throughout, and it was nice to see them collect their results and celebrate together.

On speaking to Mrs Smith, Head of Meden College she said “We are incredibly proud of the Class of 2025. Their results reflect years of hard work, resilience, and a determination to succeed despite challenges they have faced. Our students leave Meden College, part of Nova Education Trust, with not only impressive grades, but also the skills, confidence, and ambition to thrive in the next stage of their lives. We can’t wait to see what they go on to achieve.”

Finally, we would like to thank all of the parents, carers and staff members who have helped support our Year 13s through their A-Level studies and would like to once again congratulate our amazing students for their fantastic results. Good luck for the future, we can’t wait to see what you go on to accomplish next!
