Government table places Hugh Baird College as the number one further education college for A-level performance in the Liverpool City Region.

Hugh Baird College has been ranked in the top 10% of colleges in England for A-level performance in league tables published by the Government this week.

The result tables, created by the Department for Education, detail the performance of all further education colleges across England during last year’s academic year, which ended in the summer of 2018.

Hugh Baird College’s South Sefton Campus in Litherland, which delivers their A-level provision, received a ‘progress score’ of 0.17 which places them in the top 10% of Colleges in England. This impressive achievement also positions them as the No. 1 further education college for A-level performance in the Liverpool City Region.

A progress score indicates how much progress students make between the end of key stage 4 and the end of their A-level studies, compared to similar students across England.

Joe Poole, Director of Curriculum at Hugh Baird College’s South Sefton Campus, said:

“I’m incredibly proud of our recent performance table results. They reflect a tremendous amount of hard work by our students as well as the dedication and expertise of our teaching staff. As a whole College, we work tirelessly to support and challenge our students to achieve their potential I’m delighted that this has been recognised in these results.”

Yana Williams, Principal and Chief Executive at Hugh Baird College, continued:

“I’d like to congratulate the team at our South Sefton Campus for the dedication and support they have shown to help students to achieve such outstanding results.

“The results show that, learners who study their A-levels with us are joining the best performing further education college for A-levels in the Liverpool City Region.”

Students and parents are encouraged to visit the A-level Open Evening on Wednesday 30th January 2019 from 5.30pm to 7.30pm.
