A Level and Level 3 Results 2022
This year students around the UK have taken summer exams and assessments in A Levels, T Levels and other post 16 qualifications for the first time since the beginning of the pandemic. As we return to a system where results are more easily comparable between years, Elstree Screen Arts are proud to announce that our student outcomes have continued to improve. Our students have worked so hard to overcome profound disruptions to achieve some brilliant results with all of the cohort achieving passes and above in Level 3 qualifications.
As a specialist centre for media and production arts, we were particularly delighted by some amazing outcomes in Photography, Game Design, Film Studies, Dance, Production Arts Technology and Musical Theatre.
Despite the disruptions over the last 2 years, ESA students have demonstrated superb tenacity and the ability to excel in qualifications whilst also developing as people and future creative professionals. We are confident that these results and their education in our ‘7C’ character curriculum here at ESA has equipped our graduates to become confident, creative, curious, compassionate, committed, communicators and craftspeople bringing them further achievements and successes in university, apprenticeships, employment and beyond!
ESA has a commitment to creating opportunities for students currently under represented in the creative sector and so we are delighted that 79% of students from disadvantaged backgrounds and 82% of students with special educational needs achieved A* to C grades or equivalent across all our A Levels and Level 3 qualifications.
