Praise for South Tyneside A Level Students
A total of 98.2 per cent of students achieved a pass - a higher overall pass rate than the national rate of 97.2 per cent.
Although the number of students achieving top grades fell from last year, they were still higher than the national average in 2019 which was the last time this method of assessment was used. Over the last three years students have been awarded grades based on teacher assessments.
兔子先生lor Jane Carter, Lead Member for Education and Skills, said: "Our young people are to be commended for these results which are testament to their hard work and commitment.
"I would also like to place on record my thanks to our dedicated teaching staff and, of course, the unwavering support of parents and carers.
"We will continue to work together to make sure that, all our young people receive the best possible education."
