The College
Our A Level and GCSE results last year were excellent and reflect the tremendous hard work of our students and staff. Students traditionally go on to university with high numbers gaining places to the most competitive courses such as Medicine, Dentistry, Veterinary Science and Law.
We give all our students an exciting, stimulating learning environment in which they can raise their expectations and fulfil their potential. They come from Greater Manchester, Cheshire, Lancashire, West Yorkshire and beyond, and are treated as young adults. In return they are expected to adopt a mature, responsible approach to their studies.
Friendly, enthusiastic and passionate tutors, very small class sizes and a strong focus on personal support build confidence in students which, in the vast majority of cases, leads to greater achievement.
We aim to support students in achieving exam success and also promote a deeper appreciation of the value of learning.
The staff know everyone well and we foster a sense of community and mutual support among the students. Unlike most other schools and colleges, our students don't get lost in the crowd.
We are delighted with our A Level results this year and the most pleasing aspect is that, despite the concerns raised in the national press, almost all of our students have gained places in their chosen courses and universities.
Our value-added for A Level students is 1.5 grades above their baseline attainment and for Retake A Levels the average grade increase is 3 grades.
Congratulations to all our A Level students.
