Dubai: GEMS Education students, parents and staff celebrated on Wednesday the outstanding A-level results that are above 2019 records when students last sat formal examinations. More than 1,300 pupils from 18 GEMS schools in the UAE and Qatar completed nearly 4,000 A-levels, with over 20 per cent of students achieving an A* grade. Across schools, over 32 per cent of entries achieved A* to A grades, with 55 per cent recording A* to B grades. There are a host of highlights across the group, including, GEMS Winchester School — Jebel Ali, where 20 per cent of entries achieved an A*, GEMS Metropole School — Motor City with 37 per cent of entries achieving an A*to A, and GEMS Wellington Academy — Al Khail with 65 per cent of entries achieving A* to B. “The future really is bright for all of our graduating students and they have every right to be optimistic and confident as they take their next academic steps. This year’s A-level results, which follow on from equally impressive IB, CBSE, ISC, and ICSE results, are testament to the relentless pursuit of excellence of our teachers and the incredible young people in their care. Congratulations to all involved!”
