Students at Newman Catholic College in Harlesden are celebrating impressive post-16 results and securing places at universities and apprenticeships across the UK.
More than half the students (51.1 per cent) achieved A*-B grades or BTEC equivalents.
On average, students surpassed their expected targets in key stage 5 by more than one grade.
Headteacher Andy Dunne said: “These results are a reflection of the hard work and dedication our students have demonstrated during their time at Newman.
"We are exceedingly proud of their achievements, and are hugely grateful for the unwavering support from our staff and parents.
“We wish all our students the very best of luck as they commence their next steps whether that be at university, at apprenticeship placements or in employment across the country.”
Students have secured university places from physics at Newcastle to accounting and finance at Warwick, as well as biomedical sciences and more.
Some have also obtained degree apprenticeships in finance, computing, and marketing.
Nathaniel, one of the students, said: “I have done so much better than he could ever have imagined! Thank you to everyone at Newman!”
Another student, Enzo, said: “I can’t believe it! I’m so happy with my results.
"Thank you to all my teachers. I’m now heading to Newcastle University to study Physics and I’m very excited!"
Zak Jalil, head of sixth form, added: “On behalf of all the staff, I would like to express how proud we are of our students.
"They have worked diligently throughout their time here and have wholeheartedly embraced our core values.
"While it is always difficult to see students leave the school, we are confident that they are embarking on promising and rewarding next steps, and hope they keep us updated with their many successes.”
