Academic Performance
Overall the A levels at the college are fairly low, but many FE colleges do have low results. There are no separate results for the sixth form college, which would be expected to be much better. The best place for A level results in North Tyneside LEA in 2010 was Seaton Burn College, an 11-18 school. Unlike many areas of Tyne and Wear, in North Tyneside there is a good choice of 11-18 schools.

Famous quotes containing the words academic and/or performance:
“An academic dialect is perfected when its terms are hard to understand and refer only to one another.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“The child to be concerned about is the one who is actively unhappy, [in school].... In the long run, a child’s emotional development has a far greater impact on his life than his school performance or the curriculum’s richness, so it is wise to do everything possible to change a situation in which a child is suffering excessively.”
—Dorothy H. Cohen (20th century)
