Exam Results

At The Dukeries Academy we’re proud of the academic success of our students. We create a culture and climate in which all students can excel and achieve the qualifications to ensure they are prepared for the next stage in their learning, training or employment. When our young people finally leave us, we know they’ll be well-equipped to be change makers in their own and other peoples’ lives.

In 2021, examination results were determined by Academy Assessed Grades (AAGs).  Students sat a range of assessments, under examination conditions, which were marked and moderated by both Academy and ATT colleagues.  The awarded grades were also validated by the Examination Boards. The table below shows the headline achievement and progress data from 2021 and also shows the previous three years for comparison.  We are exceedingly proud of the results achieved by our students.
