Excelsior Academy implemented a mobile phone ban and a new dress code, resulting in dramatic improvements in A-Level results, with nearly 50% of students receiving A* or A grades. The ban decreased distractions and increased focus among students. Among those achieving top grades, many are set to attend prestigious Russell Group universities. The supportive environment helped students navigate their studies, with interventions during challenging times. The academy's commitment aims to overcome socioeconomic barriers and raise aspirations for students in one of the poorest areas in the country.
The mobile phone ban has had an incredible impact on the results at this school. Students are more engaged both inside and outside of the classroom.
The mobile phone ban ensured I did not get too distracted and really helped me stay on track with my studies.
