Bohunt Sixth Form is proud to announce exceptional results in the 2026 UK Chemistry Olympiad 2026.
Organised by the Royal Society of Chemistry, the prestigious competition challenges the most able chemistry students across the UK with complex and demanding problems that go far beyond A Level study. This year, Bohunt Sixth Form students rose to that challenge with remarkable success.
An analysis of results against national performance highlights the outstanding achievement.
These figures place Bohunt Sixth Form significantly above the national average at every award level, underlining the strength of its chemistry provision and the dedication of its students.
Rob McGough, Head of Science, said
“The RSC Olympiad forms part of the programme that Bohunt Sixth Form puts together to give students experiences in Chemistry beyond those of the A Level they are studying towards. I’m incredibly proud of the time and effort that was put into the preparation for what is always a great challenge. The results this year are a testament to the hard work and commitment they show every single day. Well done everyone!”
Participation in the Olympiad reflects Bohunt Sixth Form’s commitment to academic enrichment, providing students with opportunities to deepen their subject knowledge, develop problem-solving skills, and engage with chemistry at a higher level.
Clare Hodgson, Head of Sixth Form, said
“These results in the Chemistry Olympiad are a testament to the talent and hard work of our outstanding Chemistry students and the support of the Chemistry teaching team. Many congratulations to all students involved for your stellar performance.”
