THE head of Lymm Sixth Form has been left ‘delighted’ after A-Level students achieve the ‘best ever results’ seen on record for the second year running.

Results days provides a fantastic opportunity to celebrate the hard work of students, and staff, over the previous two years and Lymm has seen through another extremely successful results day today, Thursday, as eager students arrived at the gate in anticipation this morning.

Commenting on the day, a spokesperson for the school said: “We are delighted to say that the Year 13 students sitting their exams this year have done extremely well and have in fact surpassed the record set by last year’s cohort, to take the mantle of our best ever post-16 results.”

Similarly to last year, once again nearly all the students in the year group have secured places at their preferred universities.

And a high number of pupils are attending some of the most prestigious institutions in the country including Oxford and Cambridge.

Hayley Jennings, head of Lymm Sixth Form commented on the results, saying: “I am absolutely delighted.

“This cohort has been an exceptional group of students, not just in terms of their exam results, but as well-rounded and delightful individuals.

“It has been a privilege to see how they have progressed over the last two years and the fantastic individual results they have achieved. I really am so proud of them.”
