Our Year 13 students have achieved excellent A level results this year, despite the challenges they have all faced during the last 18 months. It was wonderful to see so many of them in person again today and to see them sharing their success with their families and our brilliant staff.

Here are some comments from our proud Principals and details of a few notable successes from individual students across the BWT family.

 

Tony Segalini, Principal at Kettering Science Academy said: “these results show that we are continuing to make significant progress as a school. I couldn’t be prouder of our caring and encouraging school community, which has our students at the heart of everything we do, and we have continued to support them all to be the best they can be.”

Richard Scott, Principal at Thomas Clarkson Academy said: “At TCA, we are extremely proud of the achievements of our young people in their A Levels this year, especially when considering the unprecedented disruption to their education in the last 18 months. They have shown resilience and unwavering dedication to overcome these challenges and become confident, ambitious and high-achieving individuals.”

 

Principal at Corby Business Academy, Simon Underwood said: “We could not be prouder of what our incredible students have managed to achieve, the determination and dedication they have shown over the past two academic years has been phenomenal. Alongside this the student and teacher partnerships have shone through more than ever. I wish all students the greatest success in the next phase of their education.”

Shaun Strydom, Principal at Brooke Weston Academy said: “We are very proud of all our students who have worked extremely hard over the past two years. They are fantastic role models for our younger students and should be pleased with their achievements. Our curriculum and dedicated team of staff work hard to ensure our students develop a love of learning as well as the provisions to strive, which has been reflected in their results.”
