A-Level results prove Blackburn College is a class act 21.08.2009
With an overall pass rate of 99.7%, up on last year’s 98%, and a 100% pass rate in 28 out of 29 subjects, the College has plenty to celebrate.
Wendy Simms, Head of Sixth Form, said: “I would like to congratulate all our students; their results are exceptional and, as always, they are a credit to the College.
“The results reflect the hard work and commitment of our students and the high quality of teaching and learning at Blackburn College.
“All the students have played an important part in gaining these fantastic pass rates and I thank them, their lecturers and parents for their hard work and support.”
The College is undergoing major transformation and expansion, with the new state-of-the-art £14m University Centre opening its doors this September.
Ian Clinton, Principal, said: “I am delighted that this year’s results have exceeded our previous best; everyone must be congratulated on their tremendous achievements.
“These results have topped off a string of outstanding successes for the college, including one of the best ever Ofsted inspection reports for a college in the UK, a Government Beacon Award for excellence in teaching and learning, and the Investors in People award.
“With 500 extra places available now at our new University Centre, these students can continue their academic journey with us and build on these successes.”
