A LEVEL RESULTS DAY

Students at St Mary’s College in Middlesbrough are today celebrating an A level pass rate of just over 97%, which is 3% up on last year, and equals the highest pass rate in the College’s long history.

No fewer than 23 subjects have achieved a 100% pass rate.

Amongst the many outstanding individual performances are those of Joseph Duffield, Charlotte Hughes, Daniel Price, Olivia Stewart, Joseph Watson (pictured above), Hannah Atkins and Matthew Barber who have amassed 25 A grades between them, of which 6 are the new elite A* grade.

Hannah and Olivia are now both going to Durham University to read Biomedical Sciences and Natural Sciences respectively, whilst Matthew is going to Manchester to read English Literature. Charlotte is going to Lancaster to read Mathematics, whilst Daniel and Joseph Watson are both going to Newcastle to read Chemical Engineering and Law respectively. Joseph Duffield is taking a gap year before applying to Medical School.

‘These results are a tribute to the hard work and dedication of both the students and the staff,’ said the principal, Don Lillistone. ‘The improvement in the overall pass rate is particularly pleasing, and progression from the College to University will once again be very high this year.’
