2016 Subject prize winners

CTC held their annual Awards Ceremony on 19 November which was well attended.  It was a celebration of the excellent achievements of last year’s leavers and is definitely a key date in the calendar next year!

ACCOUNTING
Seth Malik
Reason
Seth achieved this grade with sheer hard work and inspiration in his A2 year of studies.  He grew into being a student with a fine accounting brain.  He had set himself this target at the start of the second year having a B grade in AS and in the second year of studies he really went for it (he did not retake any of his AS units  – so everything achieved for the more demanding A2 units). He is a good example of someone who has changed their approach to their studies along the way and achieves the benefit of having done this. Well done!

Dong Zhan
Reason
Through hard work and determination Dong (Adam) developed his skills in Photography, gaining a place on the highly regarded Graphic Design degree course at Leeds.

Roy Teng
Reason
He only came in to do A-level Biology with year 9 biology knowledge. He initially struggled but really geared up after his AS exams then achieving an A* in Biology. I think he much deserves the prize.
