Telford College has celebrated another strong set of results for its A level, technical and vocational courses.

The percentage of high-grade pass rates from A* to C has risen again, with many students accepted into their first-choice university.

The college also reported its first set of T-Level results today, which included a 100% pass rate for digital students, and 100% pass rate for health students’ industry placement projects with the Integrated Care Service.

Vocational study highlights included 100% pass rates in aviation, business, media, and public uniformed services.

“We’re very proud of the achievements of all of our students with this strong set of results,” said principal and chief executive Lawrence Wood.

“They deserve huge credit for working very hard to do well in their exams, overcoming significant challenges which have been unique to this generation of students.

“I am also sure they would want me to thank our staff for all the hard work they have done on their behalf.”

The college held a results day breakfast event at its Wellington campus this morning, where staff were on hand to provide advice to students on their next steps.
