We are committed to ensuring that all our students have every opportunity which is available to them when they leave Cromwell. 2025 was a superb year for our Year 13 students in terms of attainment with 67% of the Year 13 cohort in total applying to university. This year our students have chosen to read Law, Business Management, History, Psychology and Cyber Security & Digital Forensics, to name a few. The rest of our students gained employment or are having a gap year. One of our students have secured Level 6 degree apprenticeship with Astra Zeneca and the Royal Antarctic Survey have taken one of our students on a Level 4 apprenticeship. None of our students fall into the NEET category.
