SIXTH form students from Bishops’ Blue Coat CE High School have celebrated academic achievement with an awards evening.

Past and present pupils gathered at the Great Boughton academy for the event where students received their GCSE and A level certificates as well as accolades for top grades and outstanding work.

Head of sixth form Yvonne Blackburn said: “It was lovely to see so many of last year’s sixth form and Year 11 returning to pick up their certificates. Shields were presented to those students who had done exceptionally well in their A-level studies or had made excellent contributions to the life of the school.”
