“I am incredibly proud of our pupils’ achievements and all that they have achieved in this year’s A Level examinations. These results are a testament to their commitment and willingness to give of their best. They have worked exceptionally hard and I am delighted to see that effort rewarded. I also want to express my sincere thanks to our dedicated staff, whose skill, encouragement and unwavering support have guided our pupils throughout their studies. The partnership between pupils, staff and families is at the heart of our success, and today’s results are something the entire Dalriada community can celebrate. As our leavers take their next steps – whether to university, apprenticeships or the workplace, I wish them every success for the future. Once a Dalriad, always a Dalriad; may they continue to dare to shine wherever life takes them”.
