Delighted college students were celebrating after achieving 100% pass rates in ten A Level subjects including Maths, English, Chemistry, Accounting, Psychology and Sociology. In addition, the results for those taking AS exams after the first year of their studies are the best ever for the College. More than 250 students sat over 600 AS and A2 exams, making Northampton College one of the biggest A Level providers in the area.
Pat Brennan-Barrett, Principal said, 'This year saw a considerable increase in the success of our students, particularly amongst those completing the first year of their A Level programme. Their success this year will provide a solid foundation for their continuing studies and future career progression. The College continues to improve across the board and recorded its highest ever success rates for all programmes last year, an achievement that won the endorsement of Ofsted which graded the College as 'Good' in its last inspection. We have a very large number of A Level programmes at Northampton College and support more students through their A Level studies than most other providers in the county. Once again our A Level students and those on our equivalent vocational and Apprenticeship courses deserve to be proud of their achievements today.'
