Lancaster Royal Grammar School Sixth Form students celebrated an outstanding set of A-level results.

Students achieved top A and A* grades in more than half of all the exams that they sat.

More than 72 per cent of all results were graded A*, A or B.

Headmaster Dr Chris Pyle said: “Huge congratulations to all of our Sixth Form students who have worked so hard for these fantastic results. We are very proud of their achievements, and absolutely delighted to see them doing so well.

“It is particularly impressive that so many of our Sixth Formers achieve such outstanding results alongside extra-curricular commitment and leadership roles within the school. A number of students have also come through difficult personal circumstances to achieve excellent results. Well done to every single one of them.”

Sarah Haigh, Head of Sixth Form, said: “The Sixth Form team is absolutely delighted to note that the boys' hard work and determination have been rewarded with these excellent results. We wish them every success and happiness on the next step of their journey, whether that be at university, on an apprenticeship or on a Gap Year.
