Head of sixth form, David Clarke told Cambridge Independent: “We are delighted with the overall 2022 A-level and BTEC results. We had record numbers of students applying for university, apprenticeship and degree apprenticeship courses this year and there are many individual stories of success.

“As always, there are a small number of Comberton Sixth Form students who need support with their next steps and these students are working with staff to secure appropriate pathways. We have not experienced particular issues with university applications that we might have expected based on information received from Ofqual or UCAS.”
