Sixth Form Students Celebrate Wonderful Destinations

Our schools with Sixth Forms are celebrating excellent results, with our students progressing to wonderful destinations. This year, we even have two students from two different Matrix schools going on to study the same course at the University of Oxford!

These outcomes reflect the tremendous hard work, commitment and resilience shown by our pupils throughout their studies, supported by the dedication of staff and families.

We are particularly proud that our pupils have secured destinations they are passionate about, with students progressing to a range of universities, apprenticeships and employment opportunities.

Here is a small flavour of those achievements.
