THE sixth form at Darwen Aldridge Community Academy has been awarded a certificate of outstanding progress for its A-level performance.
The accolade was given by the Alps student-centred aspirational tracking system for progression and achievement.
Alps’ analysis of 2,580 schools and colleges’ A-level examination results shows that it is in the top 25 per cent of A-level providers in the country.
The analysis covered the period 2013-16 showing the academy’s sixth form has achieved and maintained a consistently high level of performance in its A-level results for three years.
Alps is provided by Alkemygold Ltd.
It is recognised by both the Department for Education and Ofsted.
Howard McWilliam, assistant principal, said “This is a fantastic achievement and richly deserved by the sixth form students and staff at the academy due to all of their hard work and determination to succeed.
“We work very hard to ensure the highest levels of teaching and learning and pastoral care in order to maximise the quality of each and every student’s experience."
