Principal Jim Grant said “This group of young people had their whole 6th form experience disrupted by Covid. We are extremely proud of how they coped with lockdowns and their enthusiasm and hard work when they returned.
They have really earned their grades and we wish them the best of luck as they move on to university, apprenticeship or begin their chosen career.
We wish all of our students the best of luck on their chosen pathways.
I am also very proud of our lecturers and support staff who worked extraordinarily hard to support our students during this unprecedented time. “
