^{The Charter School East Dulwich is celebrating today as Year 13 students, staff and families come together to mark another strong set of A-level and BTEC results, headlined by a 100% Oxbridge success rate and a broad range of university and Post-18 destinations. 90% of students achieved their chosen Post-18 destinations, including 91% of those applying to university successfully placed at their chosen university. Destinations this year span a wide range of disciplines, from Medicine and Veterinary Medicine to Engineering, Law, the Humanities, Social Sciences and the Creative Arts, reflecting the breadth of ambition across the cohort.}

Alison Harbottle, Headteacher, said: “I am so proud of our Year 13 students and everything they have achieved. What stands out to me this year is not just the strength of our top results, but the sheer breadth of success across the whole cohort – from 21 students achieving all As and A*s, to young people securing apprenticeships, art foundation places and their first jobs. Everyone of those journeys represents hard work, resilience and self-belief, andevery one of them deserves to be celebrated equally today.”‍
