Candidates have been successful in receiving offers from a wide range of Russell Group universities including Cardiff, Leeds, Liverpool and Manchester.

The A level results follow on from those that International Baccalaureate Diploma students received earlier in the summer. The diploma pass level of 24 points is given the equivalent value of BCC grades at A Level. The IB results were excellent with 75% of students achieving more than 30 points, which is equivalent of A*AA grades at A Level. There were outstanding performances by Rebekah Morris-Bailey, Harlech, 37 points, Edoardo Scalvi, Italy, 39 points and Isabella Eckstein, Germany with 40 points.

Ellesmere College recently introduced a new course into the sixth form, the BTEC Sport (Performance and Excellence) to run alongside A level and IB. This two year course was introduced in September 2013 and the first results were published in 2015 with 100% pass rate, repeated in 2016. Will Toft completed the extended diploma, equal to 3 A levels and achieved three distinction stars, which generates 400 ucas points, equivalent to 2A* and 1A at A level, others opted to combine the double A level standard course with a second separate A level.
