There is much excitement today at United Sixth Form at Avonbourne Girls’ Academy as students receive their A Level results and will now successfully take up their places at their universities of choice.

Amongst those celebrating today are:

• Cheng Xiang Chen who will be studying Sociology at the University of Surrey.
• Ariana Thaneja who will be studying Accounting and Business at the University of Reading.
• Ida Altbacker who will be studying Zoology at the University of Bristol.
• Oliwier Staszewski who will be studying Geography at the University of Southampton.

Commenting on her success, Ariana said:

“I'm really happy with my results and I am so glad I had so much support to get me into my first-choice university.”

Oliwier added:

“I'm delighted with how results day has turned out. The last 7 years has seen lots of positive changes at Avonbourne, and without the help of the dedicated staff at the school I wouldn't have achieved my place at the University of Southampton.”

Michelle Dyer, Principal at Avonbourne Girls’ Academy, said:

“Our A Level students have worked hard over the past couple of years and it is wonderful to see their efforts pay off. From Accounting to Zoology, they will be embarking on an exciting variety of courses at university and all have bright futures ahead of them. Thank you to our Sixth Form team for the ongoing support they have provided. I wish our Year 13s all the very best for their next steps.”
