Results Day 2026
Andover College Celebrates A Level, T Level and BTEC Student Success on Results Day
There were smiles, celebrations and plenty of proud moments at Andover College today as students collected their A Level, T Level and Vocational results.
Students were welcomed onto campus to celebrate alongside friends, family and staff, with complimentary refreshments creating a fantastic atmosphere as they marked the culmination of years of hard work and dedication. For many, the day also marked the beginning of exciting new journeys into university, apprenticeships, employment and further study.
Part of the Sparsholt College Group, Andover College continues to deliver exceptional outcomes across A Levels, T Levels and vocational qualifications. With outstanding teaching, industry-standard facilities and strong employer partnerships, the college equips students with the knowledge, skills and confidence to succeed in higher education and the workplace.
As one of the region’s leading providers of T Levels, Andover College remains committed to delivering career-focused education that combines classroom learning with meaningful industry placements, ensuring students graduate ready for their next step.
A staggering 80% of A-level courses achieved 100% pass rates. This includes subjects such as those within the Art and Design field (Fine Art, Fashion, Photography and Graphics), Chemistry, Business, English Language, English Literature and Media Studies to name but a few. In Geography and Physics, over 50% of learners secured A*-B grades as well as many others such as Biology and Philosophy.
Across T-levels, the pass rate was 98%, which is 5% higher than the national average for these gold standard qualifications. 80% of learners achieved a merit grade or higher – 14% higher than the national average. In Early Years Education (Teaching), 100% of learners achieved a high grade as did learners on the new T-level in Business Administration (Leadership/Management). Learners from Adult Nursing have secured a unique opportunity to undertake a graduate apprenticeship in Nursing due to their achievements on their T-level programme.
In vocational level 3 programmes, the creative and performing arts subjects cemented their status as subjects of excellence with over 80% of learners across dance, performing arts and music achieving high grades. eSports, Applied Law, Applied Science and Human Biology did likewise emphasising the high level of consistency across teaching and learning within Andover College.
Ben Stokes, Vice Principal, Curriculum Andover said:
“Results Day is always one of the highlights of our year – it’s the moment we get to see our students’ hard work, determination and ambition come to life. Across the last 2-3 years, this group of learners, with support from their family and friends, have worked tirelessly to build on the skills they have developed within their secondary education to achieve a fantastic set of results. Every learner has achieved in their own way. Similarly, it is also an opportunity for us to celebrate as college staff and I would like to thank our wonderful team for the role they have played in today. This is just the beginning, and we couldn’t be prouder. We wish everyone all the success with their future aspirations.”
