Selby College is celebrating the fantastic achievements of its class of 2024, with its A Level programmes achieving an outstanding 99.5% pass rate.
Many of its students have secured places at Russell Group universities including the University of Leeds, the University of Manchester and the University of Newcastle, whilst some are heading on to prosperous careers in a range of industries.
15 out of 16 of its A Level programmes achieved a 100% pass rate including Art & Design, Biology, Chemistry, English Literature, Geography, History, Mathematics, Law, Psychology and more, with 39% of students securing high grades (A*/A/B).

The College also saw a 100% pass rate across its T Level programmes in Childcare & Early Years, Construction, Digital Support Services (IT) and Health.
I’m absolutely delighted that we have achieved a 99.5% pass rate across our A Level programmes. These outstanding results are testament to the hard work and determination of our students and the knowledge and support of our staff. It’s incredibly rewarding to see this investment paying off, with many of our students securing high-grades and progressing on to their first-choice university or their dream careers.
