A Level Success!


The A Level results are in and it’s been another great year for the College, improving again on the previous year’s results. Roy Matthews, Curriculum Leader for A Levels and Science, says: “We are delighted with this year's A Level results, with an overall pass rate approaching 97%, which continues the upward trend in performance from last year. Particularly pleasing is the improvement in the proportion of high grades (A to C) which at 80% is 12% higher than last year, with some students achieving the new A* grade. This has enabled many of our students to progress successfully on to university.”


Among the successful students collecting their results today were: Chris Jackson (pictured above) who achieved three As and is now going on to London Metropolitan University to study Creative Writing; Francesca Daly, who achieved two As and a B and is going to Cardiff University in September; Adam Dunworth, who hopes to join the RAF with his A*, A and B; Shanisa Emmons (pictured below), who achieved an A*, A and C and is going to either Loughborough or Oxford Brookes University next year; and Richard Goodyear (pictured below), whose A* and A leads him into a Politics and International Relations degree at the University of Kent with a year in Japan.



Well done to everyone who took their A and AS Levels this year and whether you are returning to the College, going to work or on to university, we wish you all the best of luck and success.
