Following a year unlike any other, year 13 pupils at Rye St Antony celebrated their excellent achievements with high A Level results. All students achieved the grades necessary to take up places in such universities as UCL; Kings College London, University of Exeter, University of Leeds and Cardiff University to study such subjects as Chemistry, Biosciences, Music, Environmental Geography, Modern Languages and more.
After a tough year in education in such a different learning environment, we are incredibly proud of our pupils who have worked so hard over these two years.
