Students and Staff of Saint Catherine’s College were delighted with this year’s A-Level results as 51 per cent of leavers gained at least 3 A- levels at grades A*- B!
Commenting on her students’ superb scores, Principal, Noeleen Tiffney, said: “I am delighted that pupils of all talents have achieved such outstanding success. They have gone off to do a variety of courses including Medicine; Dentistry; Veterinary Medicine; STEM courses; Law; languages; Teaching & Nursing.”
She continued: “This year another Sixth Former has been awarded a place on the prestigious PWC Apprenticeship Programme, as an alternative to a full time course in Accountancy at university.
