SWB students receive excellent post-16 results

Ormiston SWB Academy students are celebrating the rewards of their hard work after collecting their post-16 grades this morning.

The Year 13 students at the academy, located on Dudley Street, Bilston and part of Ormiston Academies Trust, have achieved some brilliant results following two years of hard work and determination.

The academy is celebrating an outstanding year of achievement. In A-Level fine art, an impressive 65% of students secured top grades of A*–A. SWB’s vocational pathways also shone, with ICT achieving 63% of grades at Distinction*–Distinction, and health and social care excelling with 80% of students awarded Distinction*–Distinction. These results are a testament to the hard work, talent, and dedication of all the students and staff.

Across the academy, there has been a shared sense of pride as everyone has joined in recognising these successes. Many students are now preparing to take the next step, whether that’s beginning studies at their chosen universities, starting rewarding careers, or embarking on prestigious apprenticeships.

Although every student has much to be proud of, a few have achieved results that truly set them apart. Notable examples are:

• Ruhsead Jathan who successfully achieved an A* in geography, A in biology and A in chemistry has secured his place at The University of Manchester to study Pharmacy.
• Ash Smith has successfully achieved an A in art, A in geography and an A in psychology, has secured his place at the University of Lincoln to study Animal behaviour and Welfare.
• Joshua Kehel has recieved an A in biology, A in mathematics and a B in chemistry has secured his place at the University of Birmingham to study Law.
• Luciarnia Walker, who secured a Distinction* and Double Distinction in health and social care and will go on to study Child Nursing at Birmingham City University.
• Monica Entsiwah, who achieved Distinction* and Distinction in health and social care and B in philosophy, religion and ethics will go on to study International Relations and Politics at the University of Lincoln.
• Jaydon Hadley, who achieved a Distinction* in ICT, Distinction in media and B in business has secured a place to study Computer Science at the University of Birmingham.

Ormiston SWB prides itself on delivering a first-class education which supports students to become respectful, responsible learners. By being part of Ormiston, the academy strives to ensure every child has the opportunity to thrive, regardless of their background, by providing the best learning environments both inside and outside the classroom.
