DLD College London is celebrating record-breaking success as its BTEC students achieve exceptional results, including a highly-impressive 100% pass rate for the eighth successive year.

Following a decision by the award-winning school to allow its BTEC students to take the external assessments in January, students have secured the highest number of Distinction grades in the school’s history in both Creative Digital Media Production and in Business, with 75% of grades awarded a Distinction and 51% respectively.

Business students Aditya achieved three Distinction grades and Julian was awarded two Distinctions. Media students Brook and Olly received Distinctions for their Specialist Subject Investigations

DLD College London Principal, Irfan Latif, commented on the success, “We are very proud of our BTEC students for their accomplishments as they celebrate another set of exceptional results – even more notable as these were taken on the day we went into national lockdown!

“These excellent grades are testament to the remarkable determination and resilience our students have demonstrated, through what has been a particularly challenging year. We wish them every success in the future and look forward to witnessing their future endeavours and look forward to celebrating their achievements soon.”

DLD College London is the only independent school in the heart of London with on-site boarding.
