STUDENTS at Skipton Girls High School are celebrating after another year of outstanding A-level results, says the Gargrave Road school.

Almost half of all grades awarded today were A* or A - despite a national reduction in top grades.

Headteacher, Mark Turner, said: "We are so proud of our students and it has been great to be able to celebrate their success with them.

"Despite all the challenges they have experienced over the last couple of years they have approached their studies with real dedication and have been well supported by their teachers and the sixth form team here at the high school.

"We look forward to hearing about all their successes in the future."
