Mohammed Yasin MP for Bedford added:
“A huge well done to all Bedford students on your A-Level results today – whatever’s on the page, you’ve overcome an enormous amount of pressure, and that’s worth celebrating. Whether you’re off to university, an apprenticeship, employment, or travelling, I hope you are enjoying a well-deserved break from studying and wish you every success for the future.”
Roland Weir-Howell, aged 18, achieved A* in Computer Science and A in both Politics and Economics. He said:
“I’m very happy with my results this morning and proud to be heading to my first choice university, Lancaster, to study Computer Science. I especially want to thank my Politics teachers’, they were both brilliant and gave me incredible support when I was struggling. The Bedford Sixth Form has been such a great environment to learn in and I’m really grateful for everything I’ve experienced here.”
Isabella Oubridge-Lyons, aged 18, who studied English Language, English Literature, and Classics at The Bedford Sixth Form said:
“I’m really proud of myself and so happy with my results. I got three B’s meaning I’ve secured my place at my first choice university, Birmingham, where I’ll study English Literature after taking a gap year. I had so much support from the staff here during my A Levels, and I’m incredibly grateful for that. With dyslexia and health issues, they made sure I had everything in place to do my best and feel calm, it made a huge difference.”
Henry Wallis, 18, who studied English Language, English Literature, History, and Film at The Bedford Sixth Form said:
“I’m really excited and proud of myself after getting my results this morning, getting A,B, and a C meant I secured my place at my top choice Leeds University where I will study English and Film. All the courses here have been great and the teachers have been fantastic. I can’t wait for what the future holds.”
