Minerva Learning Trust is proud to announce another year of strong A Level results across its schools, now including Netherthorpe School for the first time. With three schools contributing to this year’s results, direct year-on-year comparisons are not possible; however, performance remains strong and there have been significant improvements in several key areas.
Overall Performance
The Trust’s average grade has remained in line with last year’s results, holding steady at a C+. This reflects consistent academic achievement while also recognising the growth seen in individual subject grades.
High Storrs School (HSS) continues to perform well above the 2024 national averages, with a particularly strong value-added score that is significantly above the national figure. This reflects the school’s commitment to delivering excellent teaching and outstanding student progress.

Trust-wide Success
Across the three schools, results demonstrate strong achievements, with the Trust recording notable overall gains in attainment and progress measures. These successes reflect the dedication of staff, the resilience of students, and the unwavering support of families across the Trust.
