‘OUTSTANDING’ achievements have been made at Waingels College this year as A-level pupils pick up their final results today.
After exams were cancelled and studies were disrupted by the pandemic, the school awarded its grades through teacher assessments.
Tom Bartlett, principal at Waingels College, said: “We are immensely proud of all the work and achievements of our students.
“They have shown remarkable maturity and resilience throughout the past two years.
“We are also very proud of and grateful to our staff who have worked tirelessly to ensure students are all able to progress onto further education and study. We wish all our students the very best for the future.”
Now, pupils from the Woodley school are planning to head off to colleges, universities and firms across the globe.
Daniel, head boy at Waingels College, achieved four A*s in religious studies, history, music and English and is looking forward to studying Philosophy and Theology at the University of Oxford soon.
Fellow pupil Lucy also achieved four A*s in economics, history, maths and further maths and will enrol in Economics and Maths at the University of Bath.
Year 13 student James has since secured a place on a biomedical science apprenticeship at Oxford Biomedica and another, Ben, is heading off to university in Germany.
A spokesperson for Waingels College added: “This cohort of students have suffered more disruption to their education than any other since the Second World War.
“Their achievements are extraordinary under such difficult circumstances and should be celebrated.”
