We are incredibly proud of every student and how hard they have worked. These results are a testimony to their dedication and the expert support of their teachers.

Kingsbridge Community College's sixth form attracts students from across South Devon thanks to its welcoming community, broad curriculum and strong academic outcomes.

Students can choose from an extensive range of A level subjects alongside vocational and work-based qualifications, with many also undertaking the Extended Project Qualification (EPQ) or additional A levels to further challenge themselves.

Alongside academic excellence, the Sixth Form places a strong emphasis on leadership, personal development and enrichment, equipping students with the confidence, independence and skills needed for university, apprenticeships and employment.

With tailored guidance, specialist mentoring and outstanding pastoral support, the vast majority of students progress to higher education or other ambitious destinations, while playing an important role in shaping the life and character of the college through leadership and service to the wider school community.

Tina Graham, Principal at Kingsbridge Community College said: "Today is a day of real celebration. We are absolutely delighted to see our students receiving the results they have worked so hard for, and it has been a privilege to watch them grow into ambitious and compassionate young adults during their time in our sixth form.”

Matthew Shanks, CEO of Education South West said: "Congratulations to all of our students receiving their A level and post-16 results today. These qualifications represent the culmination of years of perseverance and personal growth, and I hope every student takes a moment to reflect on just how far they have come. "Whether they are progressing to university, higher apprenticeships, employment or another exciting pathway, they leave us with the knowledge, skills and confidence to make a positive contribution to the world around them.”
