Post 16 students at Patchway Community College have performed well this year, with a 96% pass rate and students achieving the highest possible grades in subjects ranging from English literature, sociology, psychology and business, to health and social care, applied science and textiles.
Headteacher Jane Millicent said. “These results show the hard work of all involved and it is wonderful to see students gain the grades that they need for university places, apprenticeships and employment. The BTEC Certificate results were particularly outstanding this year, with 47% gaining a distinction or distinction* and 89% a merit or above. I am proud of our students for gaining such good results and securing excellent opportunities for their futures”.
Patchway students have some exciting destinations and next steps ahead of them. Luke Viner, who was awarded two As and two Bs will be staring a degree in computer science at Nottingham University, as will Dan Viner at UWE whose grades included A* in sociology. Robin Barratt who obtained two As, B and a C is beginning a degree in psychology at Cardiff University, whilst Charis Wilcox who obtained A*, B, B will be heading to Birmingham to take a degree in costume design.
