Another successful year for the Ribble Valley's A Level students
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.

There was double success at the sixth form for two sets of twins.
High fliers Caitlin and James Webb, both 18, from Wilpshire, gained four A* grades in their chosen subjects.
For Caitlin these were French, Spanish, politics and EPQ. She will now go on to study French and Spanish at Cambridge.

A delighted James said: "It will be great going to the same university and good for our parents as they can visit us both at the same place. Although we're at different colleges at Cambridge it will be good to have a friendly face there."
Another set of twins, Milly and Eleanor McEvoy, both 18, from Clitheroe, were also celebrating after gaining the grades they needed.
Milly was awarded an A in both history and religious studies and a B in English language. She will now go on to study history at Sheffield University.
