An impressive 30 out of 31 A-level subjects recorded 100% pass rates.

Paul Riley, Principal at Worthing College, said: “We are very proud of our students, and of the results they have achieved in the face of adversity.

“They have had two difficult years, punctuated by national lockdowns and significant changes to the way they learn, yet through it all they have shown great determination and worked hard to achieve their grades.

“They should proud of their achievements and we congratulate them as they go on to their next steps, whether that’s higher education, employment or training.

“We should also recognise the fantastic dedication shown by our staff, who have supported their students in circumstances that none of us could have predicted.”
