Top unis on the way for many high-achieving DLD College students

DLD College London is celebrating the outstanding achievements of its students as they secure exceptional A-level and BTEC results.

The triumphant cohort obtained their remarkable grades from the multi-award-winning independent school, based in Westminster Bridge Road.

Commenting on this year’s results, Irfan Latif, Principal at DLD College London, said: “It is fantastic to celebrate the achievements of our students one last time before they progress on to some of the top universities in the UK, Europe and the US.

“The last few years have seen a move nationally to see results back to 2019 levels, after the pandemic years; while we are seeing the effects of this, I am pleased that we have not only matched those levels but increased our A* attainment rate.

“It is a testament to our students’ hard work, the excellent staff we have and the diversity of thought and skill of our students.

“Our BTEC students produced some of the best results in the school’s history with, like A-level, increased attainment at the top end and not one single BTEC student (certificate or diploma) achieving lower than a merit (equivalent to a C grade).

“They have gone on to secure coveted places at the likes of City, University of London, the University of Birmingham and the University of Miami, to name but a few.”

A-level subject successes included graphics, where an incredible 71 per cent of students achieved grades A*-A, and photography, where 63 per cent achieved grades A*-A.

Beyond the arts, students excelled across a range of subjects, including Lily-June, who attained an impressive A*AAB in psychology, English literature, biology and mathematics, securing a place at the University of Oxford to read English literature and language.

Another high-performing student, Alisa, achieved A*A*A in economics, business and mathematics, and will now progress to King’s College London to study business management.

Lily-June said: “I’m really happy with my results. I worked very hard to meet my offer, so this is a huge relief. I had a great time at DLD, my teachers were endlessly supportive and really helped me to succeed. I’m excited to take the next step and study English at Oxford.”

The school is hosting an open evening on September 26 at 5pm. Those wishing to register can do so by visiting https://www.dldcollege.co.uk/open-evening-registration/
