Amy said: "Studying A-levels at college has developed my confidence and independence and the tutors at CWA have given me fantastic support and advice, which has helped me achieve the results I need to study at university. Studying at CWA is a great stepping stone from school and prepares you for studying at a higher level."
Neringa said: "CWA has opened a road to many opportunities and I am very grateful to the college for supporting me and helping me achieve my goal of going to university."
Shaun added: "Studying at CWA has allowed me to progress on to university, which is the next step towards my dream career in computing."
Principal David Pomfret, said: "I am absolutely delighted with these A-level results and would like to congratulate our students and staff on their success. Not only did we achieve a 100% pass rate in all subjects but the big increase in the percentage of students achieving the higher A*-C grades is fantastic news and a testament to the hard work and dedication of our students and staff alike. These results will also mean that a greater number of our students will be accepted into their first choice university or college."
