100% Achievement Rates at St Helens College



St Helens College are delighted to announce that it has been another excellent year of results for our students studying on the Extended Diploma courses.  This year’s overall student achievement rate for the Extended Diploma courses is 100%. 
We deliver a wide range of Extended Diplomas in various subject areas including Science, Public Services, Sport, Health and Social Care, Art and Design, Media, Performing Arts, Construction and Animal Management. 
We are delighted with the success of our students on the Extended Diploma courses and the high achievement rate is a credit to both the course tutors and the student’s performance.  It is important for people to understand that there are alternatives to studying A-levels and studying on an Extended Diploma is equivalent to 3 A-Levels.

Students studying on an Extended Diploma can progress onto university with three distinction star grades on the Diploma equivalent to 420 UCAS points and three distinction grades equivalent to 360 UCAS points.  Many of our students that have successfully completed a level 3 qualification at the College will progress onto higher education or gain employment as they follow their chosen career path.

St Helens College offers students a practical way to take them to university, or into their dream job.  In addition to our Extended Diploma courses, we offer a wide range of vocational course from entry level to level 3.
