Students celebrate A Level success at St Aidan's and St John Fisher

Students at the Associated Sixth Form of St Aidan's and St John Fisher.

Students at the Associated Sixth Form of St Aidan's and St John Fisher are celebrating another strong set of A Level and vocational results.

A significant number of students achieved straight A and A* grades at A Level, while vocational students secured top grades including Distinction* and Distinction.

More than 80% of students achieved at least one A* to C grade, while over 95% achieved three or more A Level or equivalent qualifications.

The sixth form said its positive value-added score showed students had performed above national expectations based on their prior attainment.

The results have seen students secure places at universities, higher-level apprenticeships and employment opportunities.

The Associated Sixth Form is a partnership between St Aidan's CE High School and St John Fisher Catholic High School, bringing together students from Harrogate and the surrounding area.

Siân Dover, Headteacher of St Aidan's CE High School, said:

“We are absolutely delighted with this year's results, which have exceeded our expectations.

“These outcomes reflect the hard work, talent and determination of our students, supported every step of the way by dedicated staff and families.

“We are especially pleased to see so many students achieving the very highest grades and making exceptional progress throughout their two years with us. Everyone involved should feel incredibly proud of what has been accomplished.”

Steve Mort, Headteacher of St John Fisher Catholic High School, said:

“Today is a day of celebration for our entire Associated Sixth Form community.

“We have seen outstanding achievements across both A Level and Vocational qualifications, with many students achieving exceptional grades.

“These achievements are the result of perseverance, ambition and a commitment to excellence.

“We are immensely proud of every student and wish them every success as they move on to university, apprenticeships, training or employment. We look forward to seeing the positive impact they will make in the future.”

Staff at both schools have congratulated students on their achievements and thanked parents, carers and families for their support.
