St. Joseph’s Catholic Academy, part of Bishop Chadwick Catholic Education Trust, celebrates a 100% pass rate for their year 13 students. Almost 30% were at grade A or higher and 85% were at grade C or above.
We are very proud of all of our students, whose hard work, determination and commitment has been recognised in these results. Of course, these are the first formal external examinations this year group have sat and they have truly showcased their abilities.
There were some significant individual performances from students who managed to achieve 3 grade A’s or higher:
Lucy Smith (who achieved 3 A*) will study English at the University of Liverpool, Darcey Wilkinson will study nursing at Northumbria University, Emily Martin will study Politics at Durham University, Poppy Docherty will study Chemistry at Newcastle University.
Also, former South Tyneside Unsung Hero (Shields Gazette), James Mole, secured an A* in politics, will be studying International Relations and Politics at Northumbria University.
Finally, Tom Archibald will be taking an apprenticeship as a recruitment and finance consultant after achieving two distinction stars and a grade B in A level Law.
We wish all of our students the very best as they leave us to follow their chosen career pathway.
