It is with great pleasure and pride that I write of the<br />

fantastic achievements of our students this year. Put<br />

simply we achieved a 100% pass rate in all<br />

A Level subjects, making us the highest performing<br />

Sixth Form in the area. These results continue our<br />

tradition of students achieving better than their<br />

expected grades. Indeed, we are amongst the top<br />

colleges in the country for stretching students so<br />

they achieve their very best*.<br />

I am also pleased to announce that this year marks<br />

the opening of MC6, <strong>Middlesbrough</strong> <strong>College</strong>’s brand<br />

new Sixth Form serving the Tees Valley and North<br />

Yorkshire. The £6.5million pound investment in<br />

this modern and technologically advanced facility<br />

represents an important development in A Level<br />

provision in the region. There is such a deep well of<br />

talent in the area, and the young people of the Tees<br />

Valley deserve no less than the very best - the best<br />

teachers, the best facilities and the best prospects.<br />

I’ve spoken of the fantastic achievements of our<br />

students, and the wonderful facilities offered by our<br />

new building. Of equal importance is the support<br />

that we offer to nurture and fulfil the potential and<br />

promise of young people. I think that these ideas are<br />

best embodied in the values of MC6, which can be<br />

expressed as follows:<br />

Sixth Form<br />

A Partnership<br />

of Learning<br />

• A college where academic endeavour and<br />

excellent teaching are the norm<br />

• A college where students and their parents,<br />

peers and teachers work in partnership<br />

• A college of high aspiration and achievement<br />

• A college which is inspirational and full of<br />

energy<br />

• And a college where students become<br />

successful and motivated learners ready for<br />

university, work and life<br />

I would also like to take this opportunity to pass on<br />

to you my very best wishes for your exams this year.<br />

I hope that you join us at MC6: the future of Sixth<br />

Form Education in the Tees Valley.<br />
