• Erik Sohonyai: A Grade 6 in Physics alongside a Distinction* in Engineering. Erik will progress to an apprenticeship in Heavy Commercial Engineering, providing a direct pathway into specialist training and future employment.

Mitesh Thaker, Head of Academy said: “I am incredibly proud of what our students have achieved. We have seen some exceptional individual performances across Mathematics, Further Mathematics, the Sciences, Computer Science and Engineering, including students achieving the very highest Grade 9s alongside Distinction* outcomes in Engineering.

“What makes these results particularly exciting is where our students are heading next. They are progressing to A Levels, T Levels, specialist technical courses and apprenticeships in areas including Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Computer Science, Cyber Security, Aviation and Engineering.

“At STEM Academy, our ambition is not simply for students to leave us with strong qualifications, but with the knowledge, technical skills and confidence to progress into ambitious future pathways. These students are a fantastic example of that, and I look forward to seeing them become the scientists, engineers, technologists and skilled professionals of the future.”

The Academy is proud of the achievements of its entire Year 11 cohort and the range of pathways students will now pursue. From academic A Levels and specialist technical courses to T Levels and apprenticeships, students are taking the knowledge, skills and confidence developed at BMAT STEM Academy into their chosen next steps.

The Academy would like to congratulate all Year 11 students on their achievements and thank their families and staff for the support and commitment that has helped them reach this important milestone.
