There was celebration in the air this morning at Maricourt Sixth Form Centre when students opened their Level 3 results.  
Many students had confirmation of successful university applications and will now be spread all over the country to study for their degrees.  
Academic and vocational results at the school were strong with some subjects proudly boasting A* and A grades. Phoebe Scott Scarth achieved an amazing three A* grades whilst Finn Boylan (A*, A, A) and Phoebe Kehoe (A*, A*, A) gained top grades in each of their subjects. The school's vocational subjects performed really well again with Olivia Ching gaining D*D* and an A*.
Headteacher, Joe Mangan, said: “The school is extremely proud of this year group after the difficulties of lockdown and studying at home for large portions of their KS4 and 5 studies. They have worked very hard and deserve these great grades.  
“The nervousness of opening the envelope soon turned to tears of joy and then onto excited chatter about moving away, studying for degrees, and working at higher level apprenticeships. They are a truly remarkable group of young people, and we wish them all the best in their new adventures; we can't wait for them to come back and visit.”
