A-level results day: Tettenhall College celebrates success
Tettenhall College students are celebrating after more than half of them gained A star to C grades.
A quarter of pupils achieved the top A star or A grades and the overall pass rate was 92 per cent.
Head girl Ellen Walker, a talented artist who is already a published illustrator, has achieved a treble of A star grades in art, English and psychology - including full marks in her art exam.
She will study art at the internationally-renowned Falmouth Art College.
Ellen, from Bridgnorth, has already illustrated books for children's author Catherine Cooper, which have been sold worldwide.
Head boy George Harvey, from Codsall, is also celebrating after gaining A star, A, B in Business Studies, Economics and Biology.
He has deferred entry to Birmingham University to study Forensic Accountancy while he undertakes a prestigious apprenticeship with Grant Thornton in London.
Another success story for the School is overseas pupil Minh Thu, from Vietnam.
She gained three A star grades in Chemistry, Maths and Economics and will be going on to study Economics at University College London.
Headmaster David Williams said: "We are very pleased with this year's A level results and congratulations go out to all.
"It is also important to remember at this time that we are not just focused on academic success. Our pupils make a strong contribution to the wider community and we develop their personal strengths to help them succeed in whatever path they choose to take.
"We wish all of our leavers the very best for their future careers and are extremely proud of what they have achieved – both personally and academically."
