This year, the pass rate for 16 to 18-year-olds has risen to 89% - which is 3% higher than last year - and 33% achieved at least one grade A* to B.

Anita Straffon, Deputy Chief Executive, The Sheffield College, said: “It’s great to see that our pass rate for 16 to 18-year-olds has continued to climb this year.”

She added: “We are proud of our students and their success. We wish them well as they move on to the next stage of their lives and go further in their careers through apprenticeships, training, employment and university level courses.”

The total number of A Level exam entries was 176 for 16 to 18-year-old students.

Nine subjects have seen a 100% pass rate - English language, film studies, further maths, geography, Greek, history, media studies, photography and sociology.

The College offers a range of A level subjects including biology, business studies, chemistry, English language, English literature, film studies, fine art, geography, history, mathematics, media studies, photography, physics, psychology and sociology.

From this September, all A Level programmes will be based at City campus when the College launches The Sheffield Sixth Form – a new, dedicated facility for A Level students.

The move of provision from Hillsborough follows a consultation process earlier this year with students, applicants, staff and members of the wider community.

Many students at the College also go on to university level courses with vocational diplomas that are equivalent to A Levels.

Places are still available on full-time courses starting this September. For more information, click here or call 0114 2602600.
