Sixth Formers at Central Academy are celebrating today after receiving their A Level or equivalent results, which have enabled them to secure places at their first-choice universities.

Over the past two years, students at the school have continued to show excellent commitment to their A Level and BTEC studies. Thanks to their hard work and determination, the Year 13 students will now be going on to study a wide variety of high-quality courses at university – from Law to Mechanical Engineering – take up top-quality apprenticeships or enter the world of work.

Among those Sixth Formers celebrating today are:

• Alex Tryka, who achieved two As in Maths and Physics and a Distinction* in ICT, and will be attending the University of Bath to study Mechanical Engineering.
• Sophie Rigg, who achieved three Bs in Art, Graphics and Media, and will be attending Bournemouth University to study Arts.
• Louis Matthews, who achieved a Distinction* in ICT, a B in History and a C in Biology, and will be attending the University of Chester to study History.
• Ella Kershaw, who achieved two Bs in History and Graphics and a C in Biology, and will be attending the University of Cumbria to study Biomedical Science.
• Wiktoria Maslak, who achieved a Distinction* in ICT, a Distinction in Media and a C in English Language.
• Lukasz Bazydlo, who achieved a Distinction* in ICT and a Distinction in Media, and will be taking up an IT/Engineering apprenticeship.

Commenting on his achievement, Alex said:

“I am really pleased with my results and can’t wait for my next steps. I would also like to say well done to all my friends who have received results today.”

Speaking of her success, Ella said:

“I am very pleased with what I have achieved and really excited to start university in September.”

Lukasz added:

“I’m really looking froward to starting my next chapter in my IT/Engineering apprenticeship.”

Dan Markham, Principal at Central Academy, said:

“We are so proud of all our Sixth Formers receiving their A Level results today. Our students have worked extremely hard to achieve their academic goals and successfully secure their next steps – whether that means attending university, going on to an apprenticeship or entering employment. At Central Academy, we strive to give our students everything they will need to lead successful lives in the future and we are very much looking forward to seeing what this departing cohort goes on to achieve.”
