Year 13 students at Exmouth Community College have been receiving their A Level and Vocational subject results this morning (August 15).
Among Exmouth Community College's highest achieving students were Rossi McIntyre with A*AAA, who goes on to read Chemical Engineering at the University of Bath; Alex Roxas with A*AA, who goes on to read Mechanical Engineering at the University of Bath; and Alex Quaife with AAA who goes on to read Economics at the University of Leeds. Liam Saryazdi has also been accepted to study Medicine.
At A-Level 30% of grades were at A*-B grade, and 57% were at A*-C grade. In Vocational qualifications over half the grades achieved a Distinction or better.
The school says it is delighted to see so many of our students achieving the grades that they deserve and progressing on to their chosen destinations.
The vast majority of students who applied to university have now had their places confirmed – most of these being at their first-choice universities.
Headteacher Tom Inman said: “We are delighted to be able to celebrate these results with our wonderful Year 13 students. They have been one of the year groups whose Secondary education was probably most affected by COVID. We have seen some stunning individual successes at the top end, but, as a truly comprehensive Sixth Form, I am so thrilled to see students succeed so well across the range of abilities and in such a diverse range of subjects.
“We are incredibly proud, not only of their academic performance, but also of the students’ wider achievements and the wonderful young adults that they have become over their time at Exmouth Community College. My thanks also to our brilliant team of hugely committed staff who have supported these students through their time with us, and especially over the turbulence of recent years”.
Head of Sixth Form, Ashley Dyer added: “We are delighted that so many of our students have already secured their places at university or in other training or employment. We have been hugely impressed by the mature and resilient approach of our students throughout their Secondary experience and, in particular, the way in which they have supported each other as a community. We will continue to work with every young person to support them on to the next steps that are right for them and look forward to following their further progress in the years to come’.
