The Isle of Wight Council is extending its congratulations to students across the Island who have worked hard to achieve their A-level, technical, vocational, and apprenticeship qualifications this year. Well done!
A full picture of results achieved by students who sat these exams earlier this year, will be available when the final and validated data is published by the Department for Education.
Bacon: Congratulations to post-16 students for their continuous hard work
Councillor Jonathan Bacon, Cabinet Member for Children’s Services and Education, said,
“On behalf of the Isle of Wight Council I would firstly like to send my congratulations to all those post-16 students for their continuous hard work during their school journey so far.
“A huge thank you is also extended to the many teachers and tutors across colleges, sixth forms and other training providers. Your work and dedication to helping our young people achieve these qualifications is highly commendable. You have set a new generation on to their career path.”
Carter: It is also a time of different emotions for many students
Naomi Carter, Service Director for Education Access and Inclusion added,
“While this is a momentous day, we must remember though that it is also a time of different emotions for many students.
“The Isle of Wight Council offers a variety of advice and support for young people wondering how to take and what are the next steps towards their careers after their results.”
