The increasingly good A-level performances throughout Sussex and the rest of the country are the direct results of the hard work put into these exams by the students and their teachers. Praise must be given to students and teachers alike for these high pass marks. To say the exams are becoming easier is an insult to both parties.

We must be positive if we want our students to continue to study and improve for the success of the economy. The students of today are the future for a long-term successful tomorrow.
