ASHTON-on-Mersey School Sixth Form is celebrating a record-breaking year of A-level and AS-level results.

The Cecil Avenue School reported a higher percentage of students than ever before achieving the upper A-C grades. This year at A2, 42 per cent of students achieved A-B grades and 36 per cent achieved A-B grades at AS-level.

The sixth form also continues to achieve BTEC qualifications comparable with the top 10 per cent of all post-16 providers nationally. This year, 43 per cent of the leaving class attained the highest possible D* D* D* grades in their vocational qualifications.

The performance of the Year 13 cohort will once again ensure all leavers are able to access their chosen universities this year. The school paid congratulations to all students and staff in securing these outstanding results.
