Headteacher's Update

September 2016 - Learn, Achieve, Succeed...

A big welcome to all of our new students, parents, families and colleagues, and students returning into year 13 and 14. What a wonderful start to a new term. Lots of new faces, energy and enthusiasm, coupled with bright blue skies in early September.

In August 2016, our students at Durham Sixth Form Centre achieved excellent exam success. Over half of our A-Level entries achieved grades A*-B and our Average Point Score per student was above both National and Local Authority averages. Furthermore, our vocational courses were also tremendously successful - the vast majority of entries were at Distinction or Distinction* level, which, again, is well above National and Local averages.
