Thousands of students across Nantwich and South Cheshire celebrated their A Level, BTEC and T Level results today.
Celebrations took place at Brine Leas School in Nantwich with a number of students earning straight As and A*s which headteacher Paul Whitehead called “a phenomenal achievement”.
Most students secured their first choice destinations, including Oxford and Cambridge, other top universities, apprenticeships and employment.
Mr Whitehead added: “We are so proud of each and every one of our students at BL6 who received their results this morning; their superb outcomes are richly deserved.
“This morning has been a busy morning with many families celebrating together on site, which was a pleasure to see.
“Excellent results are always a product of close collaboration between families, students and staff.
“We value this relationship at BL6 and it is always a special moment on results day to see all the hard work pay off.
“We value the relationships that we foster with our students and we love to hear of their achievements. Enjoy your next adventures and keep in touch Year 13.”
At Malbank School and Sixth Form College, all year 13 students secured their university places after receiving positive results.
Headteacher John Harrison described the results as “incredibly impressive”.
He added: “We are incredibly proud of our Y13 students this year, not only have they achieved such impressive results, but we have rarely had the pleasure of working with such a lovely group of young people as our outgoing leavers.”
He said results were strong across the board with a rise in A/A* equivalent grades and a leap in the percentage of students achieving A*-C compared to previous years.
“It is amazing to see that all our young people have been placed by UCAS, naturally results day can be quite a tense affair sometimes, but today has been the smoothest one I can remember.”
Isabella Fletcher will be starting at Liverpool University to study Sociology and Josh O’Donnell is also on his way to Leeds University to study Music.
Mia Andrews and Naomi Carrigan, two of the highest performing students in the year, leave to pursue Adult Nursing degrees at Keele.
Head of Sixth Form Craig Batty said: “We pride ourselves on getting students to maximise their potential whatever that may be.
“For me one of the best parts of today is seeing students massively outperform targets and expectations, hugely improving their life chances in the process.
“We are an inclusive Sixth form and these results show the success of that approach, unlocking doors for young people and giving them the chance to achieve their ambitions.”
