Pictures capture smiles and celebrations as Chapeltown Academy students receive A-level results

Excited and nervous students at Chapeltown Academy rushed into the sixth form this morning to find out their A-level results.

Staff greeted students with a selection of pick-and-mix sweets as they gathered together to find out where they’ll be heading in the new academic year.

There was plenty of joy throughout the room, as students picked up their grades and headed off to prepare for the next stage of their journeys, including universities and apprenticeships.

Meanwhile, students studying BTEC Engineering and BTEC Health and Social Care achieved results that place them in the top one per cent nationally.

Principal Dominic Pinto said: “It’s been really good.

“The students have worked incredibly hard over the past two year at both A-level and vocational subject and the results have been fantastic.”

The Star has put together a collection of amazing pictures that show the joy this morning.
