A-Level Results Day on Yorkshire Coast

Scarborough Sixth Form College say they've once again achieved an excellent set of A Level, T level and Applied General results.

Their overall pass rate for A levels was 98% with 46% achieving the highest grades of A*, A or B and 75% achieving A* - C. 18 students achieved straight A*/A grades, which is an outstanding feat.

Phil also had this reassuring advice for any students who haven't achieved the results they wanted:
