I am so proud. A Level results at both Bridgwater and Strode College have improved year on year, with 42% high grades A*-B. Our T Level students gained equally stunning results across the Group, outperforming the sector. Students at Taunton College and Cannington College achieved 87% high grades, placing the Group among the top Colleges in the Country.
Our students work really hard and their dedication has paid off with fantastic results. We are excited to see them move on to prestigious universities or begin promising careers.

I’m incredibly proud of the hard work that has gone into achieving these results. I’ve really enjoyed my time at Strode College and I’m grateful for the experiences and support I’ve had along the way. I’m now looking forward to the next chapter as I head to Cardiff University to study Law. It’s a great feeling to see the hard work pay off, and my advice to other students would simply be to stay focused, keep working hard and never give up.
