Individual Successes

Students are celebrating some fantastic individual results including Johanna Bekele. Johanna has been a student at Harris Science Academy East London since Year 7 and was there when the school joined the Harris Federation. Today she has achieved seven grade 9s, one grade 8 and one grade 7.

Johanna said:

Since the school joined the Harris Federation, our teachers' expectations of what we can all achieve have gone up massively. Our teachers have really encouraged us to aim high and have given us so much support as we prepared for our exams. They were happy to help at all times and their doors were always open so we could pop in and ask for extra support.

Also celebrating today is Henrykh Kolobau who came to the UK two years ago from Belarus and immediately launched into his GCSE courses. Whilst he already spoke English, he did not have the same foundations in subjects such as English Literature or History and had to work very hard to get to grips with these subjects. Today Henrykh achieved six grade 9s, one grade 8 and three grade 6s.

Henrykh said:

“Coming to the UK has not been easy but my teachers at Harris Science Academy East London have been very supportive. Every single teacher took the time to get to know me and helped me whenever I was struggling. They gave me extra lessons and lots of very helpful feedback so I felt prepared for my exams.

Other students celebrating today are:

Identical twins Zaide and Zaaron Hamill who together have achieved seven grade 9s, four grade 8s, three grade 7s and three grade 6s;
Hamna Parvin who achieved five grade 9s, three grade 8s and one grade 7;
Kakon Roy who achieved five grade 9s, four grade 8s and one grade 7.

Harris Science Academy East London Principal, Dan MacPherson, said:

We are absolutely delighted with these results which are testament to the hard work and dedication of students and staff at HSAEL. I am pleased that the Academy has sustained its rapid transformation and is enabling students to secure the qualifications they need to become leaders in whatever they choose to do. We look forward to welcoming many of our Year 11 students back to our growing Sixth Form and supporting them in their next phase.

HSAEL A Level Results soar again: An improvement of 2 grades in 2 years.

Year 13 students at Harris Science Academy East London are today celebrating another record year of outstanding A Level results. For the second year running, staff have helped students to improve A Level grades by a full grade in comparison to the previous year, with the progress made from GCSE likely to be the best in Newham and Tower Hamlets.

The Academy is proud to report:

- 37% of students securing grades to attend a Russell Group university, more than four times last year’s national average.

- 100% of students securing A*-B in history, philosophy and computer science.

- 100% of students securing A*-C in English Literature, 25% above last year’s national average.

- 88% of students securing A*-C in economics, 7% above last year’s national average.

- A pass rate of 100%, 3% above last year’s national average.

These results further support the findings from the Academy’s recent Ofsted inspection, which concluded that the quality of education at Harris Science Academy is ‘exceptional’.

Principal, Dan MacPherson, said:

These results are testament to staff and students’ dedication and hard work. At HSAEL, we are committed to supporting every child to become a leader in their chosen field and to the Academy becoming the best in the Borough. The outcomes secured by our Year 13 students will ensure they have every opportunity available to them in the future to make a positive change in the community. I could not be prouder of them.”
