There were celebrations aplenty at Clitheroe Royal Grammar School Sixth Form Centre with most students gaining the grades they needed for their chosen place at university or to follow the career path of their choice.

Mr Jonathan Powell, who is deputy headteacher of Clitheroe Royal Grammar School and head of the sixth form, said: "Once again we are delighted with the students' results which reflect the amount of hard work from all of them supported by the teachers and their families.

"The overwhelming majority of students have gained a place at their first choice of university or with the employer or apprenticeship provider of their choice."
