Our students and staff are busy, today, celebrating a fantastic set of A Level results in Nunthorpe Sixth Form – our first ever.
The average points score per entry is a tremendous 228 points. Our A Level students achieved an A*-E pass rate of 100%; an A*-A pass rate of 36%; and an A*-B pass rate of 66%. In 2009, the national A*-E pass rate was 96-97% – we thus predict that we will be way above the national average when the 2010 A Level performance data is published later in the coming Autumn Term.
This tremendous record is only enhanced by the spectacular individual achievements of some of our Sixth Form students: Jack Cairns, Sara Longstaff, Scott Mitchell and Ayushma Tuladhar all achieved straight A* and A grades in every A Level qualification they took.
It is clear that the hard work and commitment of our students and staff has reaped dividends.
We are also elated that so many of our A Level students have, today, secured their first choice university place – given the national media coverage of the difficulties in securing university places this year, this is such good news to report.
This is such a tremendous first set of A Level results for our school.
Well done to all involved – we are so very proud!
Debbie Clinton
Headteacher
P.S. Our tremendous A Level results story is covered in this evening’s Middlesbrough Evening Gazette.

Dr Hughes is spot on in his comments.

What a team!

Well done to all of you! You have made everyone at home and school very proud. Thank you for taking the very important step in being the first students through Nunthorpe Sixth Form and setting the standard for years to come.
Good luck in the next stage of your journey, whether university, employment, gap year, and taking on new challenges.
I feel honoured to have known you all for the last 7 years, keep in touch. Well done.

I’m so pleased for all the students and especially delighted that well over 90% of students who applied for university have secured places – a real achievement in the current climate. Thankyou especially to all the 6th form tutors who supported the Yr 13s throughout the two years – they are a great team!
