We consistently take great pride in the paths our students choose, and this year is no exception.
Our students are embarking on a range of opportunities, including university placements, apprenticeships, and training programmes both nationally and internationally.
Lucy Hack and Tianna Campbell have been awarded scholarships to pursue their studies in America.
Many of our students have also secured valuable apprenticeships with esteemed employers, including the Land Registry and Babcock.
Additionally, several students are embarking on careers in the military and public services, such as law enforcement and nursing.
Ms Martin, Director of Sixth Form, said, “It has been wonderful to work with this cohort of students. They have risen to the challenge of Level 3 study and have created a wonderful community within our Sixth Form.
The whole Sixth Form Team is so proud of their well-earned results and know they will take these results and use them as the stepping stones to fantastic and expansive careers. We cannot wait to see the pathways our 2024 alumni take.
The whole team extends the largest congratulations to them all."
On a final note, Mrs Hutchinson, College Principal, added, “Congratulations to all our students on this momentous occasion. The successes today reflect the work ethic and commitment of our Ivybridge Community College learners. I am hugely proud of all their achievements.
Class of 2024 has been an incredible Year Group and such positive role models for our younger students.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank all our hardworking and dedicated staff and to our parents and carers who have supported the College throughout.
On behalf of everyone at Westcountry Schools Trust and Ivybridge Community College, may I wish all our students the very best of luck on their next professional chapter?"
