  • CLASS OF 2022 RESULTS

    Published 23/08/22

    Congratulations to all of our students – we’re so proud of them! 

    The last three years have been unprecedented in education and our students have had to overcome enormous challenges in order to succeed. Their resilience is an inspiration and we’re really impressed with their achievements. We wish them the very best for the future.

    Our 2022 results:

    • 99% pass rate
    • 75% achieved at least one high grade (A*-B / Distinction)

    We’re excitedly supporting our students as they make their final decisions about their destinations. 84% of them made a university application and around 5% of students plan to start an apprenticeship. 

    I’d like to say a big thank you to our incredible staff who have supported our students so well in the most challenging of times. I would also like to thank our many partners – employers, universities and charities who have worked with us and our students to ensure that they have had access to the very best opportunities – without your support their success would not be possible.

    We’ll be sharing some of our student success stories on our social media channels. Keep an eye on our Instagram and Twitter accounts for further updates and celebrations. 

    Congratulations Connell Class of 2022!
