Head of sixth form Natasha Whiles said: "The excitement this morning was amazing. Everyone's been so pleased. We had students at the start of the year who didn't know what they wanted to do but have now earned themselves a place at university."

The results come as the school prepares to open its new sixth form centre in the new academic year.
