Hannah O鈥橬eill, Group Director of Academic Studies Faculty at 暗网成人影片, said: “We are immensely proud of our A Level learners at Bracknell and Wokingham College, who have worked tirelessly to achieve their goals. Many have overcome challenges along the way, demonstrating resilience and commitment to success. We wish every learner the best of luck for their next steps.
鈥淚 would also like to thank the fantastic team of teachers, support staff and managers who have nurtured our learners through their studies. Their hard work and dedication to our Learning Philosophy enables our learners to succeed and grow.
There will be students across the country who have not achieved their desired outcomes and feel disappointed, but I urge these individuals to use this feeling as motivation to keep working hard, and to be open to new opportunities to develop and learn.”
Rachel McKay, 19, from Ascot, was one of the college鈥檚 top performers, achieving an A* grade in Media Studies, a B grade in English, and a B grade in History. She will now take up an offer from the University of Southampton where she will study History.
Rachel said: 鈥淚 feel quite good about my results. I鈥檓 going to study History at the University of Southampton, which I feel really good about as I got into university and that鈥檚 the main thing I wanted.
鈥淚 decided to come to Bracknell and Wokingham College because I thought it would be more relaxed than a sixth form and I enjoyed it more.
鈥淚 really enjoyed it here; I found it quite relaxing, the teaching was really good. You have a lot of freedom. I found it quite open and accepting.
鈥淚 have an EHCP, and I was supported really heavily by the ASC Centre team in my first year and Group Learning Support in my second year. They really helped me out, whenever I had an issue, they were there to sort it and if there was ever anything going on they were there for me. I genuinely just had a real safe space I could go to, and I didn鈥檛 feel afraid coming into college everyday like I did in secondary school. They made it a really enjoyable and safe space.
鈥淚鈥檇 recommend Bracknell and Wokingham College as if you鈥檙e more independent with your learning, it鈥檚 really good as you get to take control of it yourself. You can manage it yourself and it鈥檚 less structured but it鈥檚 also more freeing, so you can study more of the stuff you like and take it at your own pace.鈥
Maia Dalpra-Scanlon, 20, from Tilehurst, achieved an A grade in Physics, an A grade in Biology, and a B grade in Chemistry. She will go on to study Medicine at the University of Southampton.
Maia said: 鈥淚 feel conflicted about my results. I鈥檓 happy, it was less than I expected but I got into my course and that鈥檚 what matters because Medicine is all I want to do really. I鈥檓 really happy I got in.
鈥淚 work for St John鈥檚 Ambulance NHS Cadets programme where I work with teenagers, helping them to get into medicine and different healthcare careers, showing people different options, doing activities, building skills so I鈥檝e got a load of students who are going into Medicine this year. I think that I鈥檝e got about four going to the same university as me.
鈥淚 came to Bracknell and Wokingham College because I heard that it was a really close community, everyone knew each other.
鈥淚 saw a story a few years back about a previous A Level student, called Natasha, who had done really well here. I heard that there was a lot of independence given to people but there is a lot of support if you needed it.
鈥淚 liked the idea of being a student representative and I enjoyed doing that for both years.
鈥淚t was good studying here. The teaching was really friendly. I had one teacher for each subject and that teacher got to decide how to teach that subject across everything.
鈥淚t was really personal. I think it adjusted, you have some lecture-style lessons and you鈥檝e got some practical lessons. A lot of conversational learning, which I really like. The idea that you come in and you play with that knowledge which gives a mindset which is really useful for later life, that learning is fun and it鈥檚 not all about memorisation and grinding down a notebook.
鈥淚n my previous schools it felt like they treated all the students the same, they don鈥檛 do that here. They support individuals, and the teachers are willing to give you their time outside of classes. I really would recommend it over sixth forms.
鈥淚 formed relationships with students and teachers who I didn鈥檛 even study with, in completely different courses which is due to the number of clubs they have, which is really helpful.
鈥淚鈥檓 excited to go to university to study Medicine. I鈥檝e still got disbelief but I鈥檓 very happy because I worked really hard this year. I had it in my head that it would take years and years because this is what I want to do with my life and I鈥檓 so glad that this is what I get to do now. ”
Dumi Bodea, 18, from Aborfield, achieved an A* grade in Law, and B grades in History and Politics. She will now take up an offer from the University of Southampton where she will study Law.
Dumi said: 鈥淚 feel pretty good. I鈥檓 happy overall as I got into university and that鈥檚 all I wanted to do. I feel good, I鈥檓 excited. I think it鈥檚 going to be a positive and happy experience.
鈥淚 decided to come to Bracknell and Wokingham College because of the independence at college. I liked it that it was a bit more independent from sixth forms so then I could be in control of my routine and learning.
鈥淏oth my teachers were great. Ed, I had for both History and Politics, I think he made learning a lot more fun and I really enjoyed the lessons.
鈥淩oni, who taught me Law, offered me a lot of support, even out of college time, like at the weekend when I had exam questions, he was always up to help me.
鈥淚 think I would recommend the overall experience. I loved that we were treated more like grownups than children and the teachers put more responsibility on us. They talked to us like people, they didn鈥檛 talk to us like children I think that was really nice as I鈥檝e got a lot of friends who went to sixth form who have said that their teachers treated them like they were still in secondary school so I really appreciate that the teachers treated us more like grownups. ”
Aron Misiak, 18, from Slough, got three Bs for Biology, Chemistry and Psychology. He will now go on to study Genetics at the University of York.
Aron said: 鈥淢y results are good. I came to Bracknell and Wokingham College because I heard the science department was good.
鈥淚t was good to study here. I liked all my teachers. They were very active and cared about the grades. The teachers had good lesson plans, and we got through the content pretty quickly.
鈥淭hey gave me lots of online resources like websites I could use and documents to support my learning.
鈥淚鈥檓 going to study Genetics at the University of York. It鈥檚 going to be challenging but a good time, I hope.鈥
