A Level Results 2020

Friday 14 August 2020

As a school, we are extremely proud of our students’ hard work and achievements. I am delighted that, despite the difficult circumstances, the majority of our students have progressed onto the next stage of their educational journey. Despite the obvious challenges that this year group have faced, we are excited to see so many of our students offered places at high achieving universities. The majority of our students have achieved grades that enables them to attend their first choice university, apprenticeship programme or enter into employment. As a small, student-focused Sixth Form, we pride ourselves on developing a range of skills and attributes, allowing students to leave us with much more than just academic results.
