Celebrations are in order for Cirencester College students from Cirencester and Cheltenham collecting their A-level, T-level and Vocational results today, with top grades across the board.
So far, over 80% of students have secured places at their first-choice university.
Congratulations to the nine students who gained their places at veterinary and medical schools across the country, and the four students who secured their places at Oxford or Cambridge.
Among the many success stories is Yannick, formerly of Kingshill School, who achieved A*AAA and is headed to the University of Bristol to study Maths after taking a gap year to gain work experience.
Emily, formerly of the Cotswold School, has secured a place at the University of Gloucestershire to study Editorial and Advertising Photography after collecting A*A* and a Distinction* today. Emily said “I am relieved and proud that my hard work paid off. I really enjoyed my time at Cirencester College and found the support from my lecturers so helpful!”
It was another year of top T-level grades, with the fourth cohort of students receiving their results. Cirencester College was one of the first institutions to pioneer T-level qualifications and today celebrates 35 students achieving top grades.
Among the top achieving T-level students is Isla, who achieved a Distinction in Education and Early Years, securing a place to study Social Work at the University of Gloucestershire.
T-level Management and Administration student, Sam, formerly of Cirencester Deer Park, achieved a Distinction and will be studying International Business Management at Oxford Brookes University.
College Principal, Matt Reynolds, said “We’re absolutely thrilled with our results this year. Performance has been extremely high. I’m so proud of our students, and my excellent staff for what we’ve achieved together. Our A-level results have been superb, with Arts courses hitting up to 85% A* to B rates, and great examples of Humanities and Science subjects collecting brilliant 100% pass rates. All while T-levels have set the bar for technical qualification excellence smashing the national figures, and our Vocational courses are simply flying along with brilliant performance. It’s fantastic to see our young people about to venture out for the next part of their journey in life. I feel so happy that we’ve helped them achieve their goals and have prepared them perfectly for their next steps. Congratulations to all of our learners on their success.”
