A Fantastic Achievement for St. Wilfrid’s RC College

St Wilfrid’s RC College, which is part of Bishop Chadwick Catholic Education Trust, is delighted to celebrate with their wonderful and inspirational Year 13 students who have received their A Level results today. The whole school community is beaming and could not be prouder of the way that they have coped with the disruption to learning caused by the Covid pandemic; they have adapted their learning and demonstrated positivity, fortitude and resilience throughout.

Yet again, St Wilfrid’s students have achieved some outstanding results, which have allowed them to access the next stage of their education, training or employment. The average grade for the cohort is Grade B with an impressive 42.5% of grades at A*- A and 72.3% of grades at A*- B (including equivalents). 29% of A Level students achieved AAB including two facilitating subjects – this is a fantastic achievement.

  • Amanda Taylor who will be going to study Chemistry at Oxford University after attaining three A* grades
  • Hannah Ebberson achieved three A* grades and will be studying Biomedical Genetics at Newcastle University  
  • Milla Withers who has also secured a place at Newcastle University to study Biochemistry after achieving three A*s

The school also expressed their delight that Beverley Gonsalves has been successful in gaining a place at King’s College London to study Medicine.  

They are delighted to have a number of students who have secured top apprenticeships with national companies and others choosing to enter the world of work. The staff and governors at St Wilfrid’s wish their students the very best of luck with their chosen next steps stating ‘it has been a privilege to have worked with them and we sincerely hope they find fulfilment in the next stage of their career progression’.
