Sky’s the limit for MHS high fliers!

Students and staff at E-ACT Montpelier High School are celebrating strong A-Level results.

Nearly 17 per cent of grades awarded to students at the school’s V6 sixth form were A* or A.

Among some outstanding individual results were:

• Anastasjia Sobol (AAB) – Anastasjia was diagnosed with Long Covid in Y11 which affected her attendance to school, but not her ability to complete 3 A-Levels. With support from teachers plus pastoral support and Ana’s hard work, she has been accepted into the University of Exeter to study Computer Science.

• Darcey Manning (MeritBC) – Darcey was thinking of leaving sixth form at the end of Y12 but with pastoral and teacher support and through her fantastic resilience achieved the impressive destination of University of Stirling for Sport Business Management.

• Sally Naser (A* A* A) – Sally is going to the University of Bristol to study Medicine. Sally overcame the challenges of applying for such a competitive course by accessing teacher and pastoral support to help her achieve her place in a medicine course at University of Bristol.

Vanetta (Ben) Spence, principal of the school, which is part of the E-ACT multi academy trust, said: “We are proud of every single V6 student at Montpelier High School who has received their results. The 2025 cohort has shown remarkable perseverance and commitment throughout their studies, navigating a challenging academic landscape with determination.

“While this year’s results reflect the national picture of increased difficulty in securing top grades, they also highlight the breadth of success across our student body, with many securing places at their choice of university, apprenticeship, or employment pathway.

“These outcomes are the result of sustained hard work from students, dedicated support from our staff, and the encouragement of families and our wider school community. “.”

Tom Campbell, CEO of E-ACT, said: “E-ACT Montpelier High School students have impressed us with their academic performance and their values. Montpelier High has a lot to celebrate.”
