Mountain Ash Comprehensive School is today celebrating the outstanding achievements of its final Year 13 students as they receive their A Level results, marking the end of an important chapter in the school's history.

The Class of 2026 has been an exceptional group of young people who have demonstrated resilience, determination and ambition throughout their time at Mountain Ash Comprehensive School. Their success today reflects years of hard work and commitment, supported by dedicated staff and families.

As the school's final A Level cohort, these students will always hold a special place in the history of Mountain Ash Comprehensive School. Their achievements mark not only personal success but also the culmination of many years of sixth form education at the school.

Students are moving on to a wide range of exciting opportunities and have secured places on university courses including Law, Dentistry, Education and Aeronautical Engineering, while others are progressing into high-quality apprenticeships and entering the world of work.

Everyone at Mountain Ash Comprehensive School is immensely proud of this remarkable group of young people. Today is a particularly special and emotional occasion as they become the final students to receive A Level results from the school. While it marks the end of an era, it is also the beginning of exciting new chapters for each of them.

Year after year, Mountain Ash Comprehensive School's sixth form students have gone on to achieve great things, and this cohort is no exception. They leave with qualifications, experiences and memories that will stay with them for life, alongside a legacy that will always be part of the school's history.

The school wishes all Year 13 students every success and happiness for the future. Whether progressing to university, apprenticeships or employment, they leave with the very best wishes of the entire school community.

Good luck, Year 13. You have been an amazing group of young people and we look forward to seeing all that you go on to achieve.
