Worthing College A-level students celebrate 99% pass rate

Students at Worthing College are celebrating another year of exceptional results.

The college recorded a 99.2% pass rate for A-levels in 2022, with more than half of students securing the highest grades of A*-B and 84.5% achieving grades A*-C

An impressive 26 out of 31 A-level subjects recorded 100% pass rates, with a third of all A-level courses achieving 75% (or higher) A*-B grades.

Helena Thomas, Principal at Worthing College, said: “We are very proud of our students, and of the results they have achieved this year.

“We can’t underestimate how challenging it has been for them. Let’s not forget, this is the first time these students will have taken external exams for more than two years, having been awarded CAGs (Centre Assessed Grades) for their GCSEs in 2020.

“They’ve experienced disruption to their learning through the coronavirus pandemic, but they have shown great commitment throughout.

“They worked hard to achieve their grades and they should be very proud of their achievements, and we congratulate them as they take their next steps – whether that’s higher education or employment.

“We’d also take this opportunity to thank our staff. The dedication they have shown to their students has been inspirational.”
