Results Day: creative communicators


This year, a number of students combined creative and communicative flair.

Lulu Jones, for example, got A*s in both Photography and Communication & Culture (one of her A2 Photography pieces is shown above; more are on her Flickr photostream), as well as a B in English. She'll be heading to Liverpool in the Autumn to study Communication, Media & Popular Music – a niche course with only around 15 places, unique to Liverpool.

Since she has ambitions to work in broadcasting or music journalism, it sounds like the perfect course.

Meanwhile, Jodie Lewin combined A*s in Communication & Culture and Geography with an A in Art, and is off to read Sociology at the University of Bristol. Sasha Uss gained A grades in Art and History and an A* in Sociology, and has won a place on the highly competitive Art Foundation course at Oxford Brookes University.

Finally, Rory Matthews (whose A level photography work we've featured previously) achieved A*s in Photography and Computing and a B in History. He'll be studying the renowned Photography degree course at Falmouth. It's very rare for Falmouth to accept students without a foundation certificate, so the fact that Rory received an unconditional offer to join after his A levels is testament to the quality of his work.
