• Anastasia Maunder-Taylor who received an A in Sociology and two Bs in Dance and History. Anastasia is set to study Primary Teaching at the University of Chichester.
Commenting on students’ achievements, Michelle Dyer, Principal at Avonbourne Boys’ and Girls’ Academies, said:
“Congratulations to all our Sixth Formers on this excellent set of A Level results. Despite the many challenges the pandemic presented, our young people continued to prioritise their learning and strived to achieve their very best. It is fantastic to see our Year 13s being rewarded for the hard work and dedication they have shown to their studies over these past two years.
“A sincere thank you also to our wonderful Sixth Form team for the ongoing support and dedication they give to our students. I look forward to keeping in touch with our recent alumni and hearing of their successes in the years to come.”
