DSFC: Student Outcomes

Another year of outstanding results…

Students and staff at Durham Sixth Form Centre are celebrating success today following the publication of Level 3 results, marking yet another year of outstanding academic and personal achievements.

In our A Level and other academic qualifications we achieved a 100% pass rate and an average Grade B, with almost three quarters of the grades awarded being impressive A*-B grades.

We enjoyed similarly outstanding success in vocational subjects with over 90% of the grades awarded being the very highest Distinction* – Distinction grades.

We are pleased to have maintained our track record of excellent results.

Jo Lain, Principal, commented:

“I am extremely proud of the hard work, commitment and resilience shown by our students which has supported them in achieving such outstanding results. Their success is very well deserved and will allow them to progress on to the next stage of their education and we wish them all every success.”
