'Outstanding, remarkable and determined' - Pembrokeshire's A level students do their county proud
Pembrokeshire's A level students have made their county proud with headteachers paying tribute to what they describe as 'outstanding, remarkable and determined' results.
''The resilience, hard work, perseverance and determination to succeed shown by this Year 13 cohort, has been rightly reflected and rewarded in the A Level and BTEC results," commened Henry Tudor school head, Mrs Kite.
"And this is naturally in light of the earlier challenges and disruptions to their education as a result of the coronavirus pandemic."
Almost all of Harry Tudor's Year 13 cohort have achieved results which will enable them to take up their places at universities in England and Wales. Pupils will be taking up their very well deserved places on diverse and exciting degree courses ranging from Veterinary Science, Chemical Engineering, Archaeology to Social Work and Marine Zoology,
Mrs Kite said there have been 'some outstanding results' awarded to a large number of students, some achieving combinations of 3 A*s and 3A’s, as well as many highly personal success stories.
Haverfordwest High also has cause to celebrate after what head Mrs Jane Harries described as the students' 'outstanding achievement' in both the AS level and A level examinations.
"We recognise that this is a result of their hard work and determination throughout the academic year," she said.
"My thanks go to the staff for their commitment but also to the parents and carers for their continued support and to the pupils for choosing Haverfordest High VC School for their sixth form studies and for their perseverance and ability to step up to the demands of A level courses."
Notable successes from Haverfordwest High included Libby Banner (5 A*); Catrin Fletcher (4A*); Troy Goodridge, Annika Harries and Alex Tuddenham (3A*)
AS results from some of Haverfordwest High's Year 12 top achievers include Finn Macare, James Naoe , Finn Sinclair, Nikita Vajrala and Lily Walters who all achieved four As.
Ysgol Bro Preseli has once again achieved some notable successes after what headteacher Rhonwen Morris described as 'outstanding' results.
"The excellent grades achieved this year are a clear testament to the hard work, dedication and commitment of our pupils and staff," she said.
"With 40% of all A Level grades awarded at A* or A, we're extremely proud of them all. This remarkable achievement reflects the dedication and hard work of our students, the support of their families, and the exceptional commitment of our teaching and support staff. Well done to everyone involved in making this success possible".
Ms Morris went on to say that as the only fully Welsh Medium Post-16 education provider in Pembrokeshire, Ysgol Bro Preseli takes immense pride in offering high-quality education through the medium of Welsh.
"The belief in the value of Welsh medium education has been instrumental in our success as a school," she said
As our pupils take the next steps and broaden their horizons, we wish them every success, but we're confident that their strong roots will empower them to thrive on their journey through life."
Students at Ysgol Greenhill in Tenby have also earned the praise of headmaster David Haynes.
"Our outstanding young adults have not only achieved the grades required to move on to the universities of their choice, but the way in which they have enhanced their wider skills and personal qualities during their time in the sixth form has been outstanding," he said.
"We extend our heartfelt thanks to the committed teachers, support staff and our families who have provided exceptional support for our pupils during their time at the school."
Notable successes include Cerys Harts who achieved one A* and 3 As, Head Prefect Bethan Evans, who achieved two A* and two A grades and will study medicine at Cardiff University; Georgie Kidd who attained one A* and three A’s and will move on to Queen Mary University of London, to study English and European law; Megan Haysom who achieved one A*, two A’s and one B and will progress to Imperial College London, to study medical biosciences. Angwen Williams who gained three A’s and one B and will study English literature at Cardiff University. Alex Young achieved three A’s and one B and will progress to Cardiff University to study biomedical sciences.
Outstanding results were achieved by Cara Evans (one Distinction and two Merits) and Rudy Poole (three Merit passes) in Level 3 National Extended Diploma in Sports Coaching and Development.
Pembrokeshire Cabinet Member for Education and the Welsh Language, Cllr Guy Woodham has congratulated the students on behalf of the county council.
“We congratulate all learners on their achievements," he said.
"Continuing the transition back in to external examinations has been a challenge that these learners have met successfully.
“The achievements of learners are to be commended and celebrated. I would like to wish them every success for their futures.”
The Council encourages learners to take pride in their accomplishments and look forward to the exciting opportunities that lie ahead.
For those who may need additional support or guidance, resources are available to help them navigate their next steps and this will be available at schools.
