Cardiff Sixth Form College students have gained outstanding results this year with the highest A* rate ever (68.2%) at A level, in a non-Covid year, bucking the trend of results across Wales where results at top grades were down.
94% of students at the college, which has been the UK’s top school for A level results for over a decade achieved A*-A grades, 99.6% were awarded A*-B grades and 100% A*-C.
Cementing its place as one of the top academic schools in the UK, 50 students achieved four or more A* grades (40% of the cohort) and 13 students achieved five A* grades. 60% of all students achieved three or more A* grades and 87% three or more A grades.
“This has been another incredible cohort of Cardiff Sixth Form College students in 2025 who will be remembered for their work ethic and high standards which have been rightly recognised with outstanding results,” said Principal Tom Arrand. “It is a privilege to work with such motivated and inspirational students, and the staff who have facilitated their success.”
