A college spokesperson said: “We want to celebrate every single one of you for the dedication, resilience, and hard work you have put into your studies. Seeing your effort pay off is a moment of immense pride for our entire school community.

“To those who achieved the grades they were hoping for, well done on a fantastic achievement!

“To anyone who didn't quite get the results they were expecting today, please remember that these grades do not define you. Your journey is uniquely yours. Your path forward might look a little different than you originally planned, but it is every bit as valid, exciting, and important.

“Success comes in many forms, and this is just one small step on your overall journey. We are extremely proud of each and every one of you, no matter what your envelope contained today.”
