Wood Green School has praised its students, calling them "exceptional" and "inspiring" after many positive A level results despite Covid disruption.

Almost 30 per cent of all grades were at A* and A.

The school tweeted: "To our Y13 students, you are all exceptional, inspiring, and talented young people and we wish you all every success in the future."

The school posted pictures of Niamh (A*A*A*) and Lucy (BB Distinction) celebrating their fantastic results.

Niamh will go on to do a Degree Apprenticeship with Accenture and Lucy is going to study Film Production at University of Portsmouth.

In a statement, the school said: "Our year 13s received their A Level and BTEC results this week. Firstly, we would like to congratulate our year 13 students on making it through an incredibly tough two years.

"Having not sat GCSEs in 2020 and then having had a very different Sixth Form experience, with disruption to learning and not having had the full wider experience, it is a tremendous achievement to have received their A Level results this summer."

They said despite everything, "there have been some fantastic successes at A Level this year".

Many students will now go to universities, including Oxbridge, and many into degree apprenticeships. More students have taken gap years in order to take stock of the last two years and decide what is best for them, said the school.

"However, Wood Green students are more than just grades. There are so many stories of overcoming adversity, and the resilience that every single one of our students has shown is remarkable."
