Sixth Form Celebrates Results Day

Students received their A Level and Vocational qualification results in the summer.
After an abrupt end to their Year 11 studies, we are so proud of the way that our Year 13 students
have shown determination and resilience throughout their time in the Sixth Form.

Over 60% of A Level passes were at grades A*-B, and more than half of our Vocational passes were
at Distinction or Distinction*.
40 students achieved only the highest grades of A*, A, Distinction and Distinction* in all of their
subjects, with 30% of our A Level grades being at grade A or A*.

Three students have realised their dreams to study Medicine or
Dentistry and one student has achieved his place at
Cambridge to study Natural Sciences. This year, 200 young
people at the College decided to apply to university; a quarter
having gained places at the prestigious Russell Group universities.
We are always proud of the destinations of our students, and
this year is no exception, with students off to university,
apprenticeships and training across the country and beyond.
One student is off to realise his linguistic and business talents
at a Business School in France, many are off to prestigious
Dance and Drama schools across the country, a further
student has secured a top job with a local firm supporting
his AAT qualification training and another student has already
started to work as a firefighter.
Mrs Hutchinson, Principal added,
