Plymouth College is celebrating its A Level results this morning. The overall pass rate remains strong at 98% with an impressive A* to B grade pass rate of 65%, an increase of 4 percentage points on last year.
One in six pupils gained at least 3 A grades or better, with five pupils achieving at least 4 As. Top performers include Head Boy, Tristan Day, who walked away with 2 A*s and 2 As, Ellie Hall, Emma Harry and Will Dickinson each with 1 A* and 3 As, and Alistair Lochhead with 4 As.
The A level results come hot on the heels of the school's first ever International Baccalaureate Diploma (IB) results in July, which saw an outstanding overall point score of 34, the equivalent of more than 3 A*s at A level.
"My warmest congratulations to all our students on their examination success", said Headmaster, Dr Simon Wormleighton. I am delighted to see such an excellent set of results and I would like to pass on my thanks to the teaching staff for their continued commitment and hard work, which has helped our students to reach such a high level of achievement. We have a busy and vibrant sixth form community and it is extremely rewarding to see both our A level and IB student do so well. "
