The Welsh Local Government Association has congratulated Wales’ pupils on another excellent year for A-level and Welsh Baccalaureate results.
Cllr Peter Fox (Monmouthshire), WLGA Spokesperson for Lifelong Learning said:
“Today’s results reinforce the dedication and excellent abilities of Welsh pupils, and also reflects the commitment and contribution of our education professionals, both within schools, local authorities and further education institutions across Wales.”
“I am particularly pleased to see that the number of pupils achieving the Advanced Baccalaureate nearly doubled this year, with 81% of pupils completing the programme. This is a clear indication of the hard work that has been put in by students and education professionals.”
“Welsh local authorities continue to invest in providing an excellent education system for Welsh pupils and today’s results are a clear indication of our continued commitment to helping the pupils of Wales to achieve their best and our commitment to providing opportunities for further education.”
