STUDENTS scored the best exam results ever seen at Barnsley College in the first year in its new sixth form centre.
The A-Level results this year are the best the centre has ever had, with a 99 per cent pass rate over all their subjects and a 100 per cent pass rate in 24 out of the 27 subjects offered by the college – including physics, chemistry, biology and history.
Principal of the Sixth Form Liz Leek said: “All our subjects will be on or above national average. We are just seeing so many students getting the grades they need.
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
