Theale Green School’s Year 13 students are celebrating this morning after their hard work gained A Level and BTEC results that will open the doors to a range of exciting university degrees, apprenticeships and employment opportunities.    

Last year Theale Green School’s Sixth Form was ranked in the top 1% in the country for performance at post –16 and this year students’ hard work has again paid off.

The results have secured students places on prestigious courses at universities including Exeter, Manchester, Cardiff and the London Contemporary Dance School.

Headteacher of Theale Green School, Jo Halliday, said: Whilst recent months have led to a great deal of uncertainty regarding the results, our students should rightly be proud of their achievements, and the incredible destinations they have secured through their hard work, commitment and dedication to their studies.  

This year’s cohort sees us celebrating with students who are the first in their family to go to university which is truly inspiring. In their seven years at Theale Green School, including their final two years in the Sixth Form, our students have played a key part in the life of the school including through high quality musical and drama productions, becoming district league football champions, and being strong role models for all. 

We are all very proud of the Theale Green School community and every student has played an important part in building this; I wish every individual student all the best with their next steps and do hope they keep in touch. 

Joanne Harper, CEO of Activate Learning Education Trust, said: “These are most unusual times and what is now important is to celebrate the achievements of all students and their next steps. Students will be progressing on to many varied destinations and we are enormously proud of each and every student and look forward to watching their careers develop over the coming years”.  

Here are just a few of our student’s achievements, gaining top grades to secure them access to universities of their choice:   

  • Seamus Gate – University of Bristol to study medicine
  • Lauren Douglas-Shea – Cardiff University to read Law
  • Jarod Maciejewski  – Reading University to join the Accounting & Business Flying Start programme
