Emma has congratulated students and teachers at Wolverhampton’s schools and sixth form colleges on their A-Level results.

Emma said “It is fantastic to see so many young people getting the grades they deserve and have worked hard for. It is good news that record numbers of students across the country have been offered university places.”

“It is also welcome that the gap between the numbers of boys and girls receiving the top A* grade has narrowed.”

“In particular I want to congratulate schools in Wolverhampton like North East Wolverhampton Academy which have increased their pass rates.”
