Bridgwater & Taunton College students and staff are celebrating a fantastic set of results for this year’s A Level students.

Andy Berry, Principal and Chief Executive said,

I am delighted with the results our students’ have achieved. After experiencing a very tough two years of study, our students have shown a great deal of resilience, stepped up to the challenge and obtained excellent results. Each and every one of our students should be proud of the positivity and dedication they have shown.

Sam Reilly, Assistant Principal said,

The hard work, motivation and dedication of our students has been rewarded with a tremendous set of qualifications. I am extremely proud that so many of our students will be going on to study at some of the country’s best universities and on the courses of their choice. Their outcomes are a real credit to them, with 72% of courses achieving a 100% pass rate and 58% of students achieving at least 1 high grade. We are looking forward to hearing about all our students’ next steps and wish them every success as they prepare for the next chapter in their lives.
