I am off to study Molecular Bioengineering and I can’t wait to start my degree at such a prestigious university. I’ve really appreciated the personalised style of tuition at The Webber Independent Sixth Form, and I want to say a big thank you to all of my tutors who have worked with me and supported me.”

Mrs Fretwell, said: “I am over the moon for both of my children, Sophie and Matthew. Matthew secured an unconditional offer to study Computer Science at Coventry and Sophie is off to Imperial – I am so proud and I cannot thank the staff at Webber enough.”

I’ve had such an amazing time growing as an individual at Webber, and I am so pleased with how far I’ve come. I would like to thank all of the staff at Webber, and my parents, for their support and guidance – it has been invaluable in helping me find what I wanted from my future.”

Mrs Meadows jokingly said: “Gary can’t leave, he will be back,” she continued “I am so proud of Gary and the young man he has become, he has done incredibly well and I am really happy for him. The staff at Webber have been a big part of both our lives and I can’t thank them enough for all their time and support – we will miss them.”

Speaking about the School’s performance, Headmistress, Hilary Marsden said:

“I am so proud of all of our students’ performance and couldn’t be happier that 100% of our students secured their first choice university, with many going on to study degrees in STEAM related subjects. This year we’ve seen an increase in students choosing to study in the fields of Science, Engineering, Computer Science, Business and Arts.

“I want to say a big heart-felt congratulations to all of our A Level students and I wish them every success in their future study and career paths.
