Many congratulations to all our Key Stage 5 students who have received their A Level, BTEC and Technical results. The grades reflect the hard work and commitment of students, and we are delighted that so many will be celebrating success. 

For our students, these grades are a passport to the next stage of their lives. Many have been accepted by universities. For example, our students will be reading degrees ranging from Mathematics to Chemistry, Architecture to Mechanical Engineering, English Literature to Human Geography, Fine Art to Law, Psychology to Acting and Musical Theatre at universities across the country, including prestigious Russell Group universities, as well as universities in the USA. 

For other students, their results will enable them to take up places on apprenticeships and in the workforce, in the UK and abroad. These include apprenticeships in IT sales, Music Production, Hospitality and the Leisure Industry.

Numerous members of the Furze Platt Senior School community have contributed to these results. The skill and commitment of the Furze Platt Senior School staff has helped support and educate students to realise their ambitions. Likewise, families and friends have supported students through their education. Today students are celebrating thanks to a fantastic team effort.

Wherever our students are progressing, we wish them every success in the future. Our Head of Sixth Form, Pete Ging, summed up our feelings: “I am thrilled for all of our students who have achieved brilliant results today in their A-Levels or Vocational Level 3 courses. 

Students have worked so hard over the course of the last two years and fully deserve their success, especially considering this year group had not taken formal GCSE examinations due to the COVID pandemic. 

Students can now enjoy the prospect of preparing for university, apprenticeship or employment. I am sure they will be as successful in these ventures. A huge well done to our Year 13 students!

We hope that students and their families enjoy celebrating their results and that students revel in the opportunities their grades will bring. We encourage our students to stay in touch so that we can learn about their lives beyond Furze Platt Senior School.
