Burnley College adult learners shine as they smash national average in GCSE results

The College's Adult Learners sitting GCSE Maths achieved an outstanding pass rate, more than double the national average.

Meanwhile, GCSE English Adult Learners celebrated a pass rate more than 50% higher than the national average.

Humera Khan, Head of Maths and English at Burnley College, shared her pride in the students and staff:

"We are elated with the results our learners have accomplished, particularly considering these are the first exams of their academic year with us.”

She attributed the impressive results to a combination of factors:

“This cohort have been exceptionally diligent and, combined with Burnley College’s expert guidance from specialist Tutors, and a supportive learning environment, it’s brought about an incredible set of results.

"Our learners and Tutors worked collaboratively, engaging together in their regular sessions as well as booster classes.

“The positive impact on hundreds of our learners is something we're incredibly proud of. It truly showcases the resilience and dedication they have towards achieving the highest accomplishments."

This achievement adds another feather to Burnley College's cap, which was rated "Outstanding" by Ofsted for its Adult Learning Provision in their latest assessment.
