Thomas Hodgson’s dad facetimed his son to inform him of the thrilling news that he had received two As and a C, allowing him to study music at The Guildhall School of Music and Drama.

Thomas was unable to collect his results due to being away on a the Cambridge National Youth Percussion Orchestra course, which will act as another step in the right direction for this musical future.

Along with Thomas, student Mia Cunningham Stockdale also has plans to pursue a career in the arts industry.

Having starred as Beauty in the Chichester Festival Theatre production of Beauty and the Beast, she was then offered a youth apprenticeship programme there.

Mia explained that although her first ultimate goal will not be achieved right now, a new opportunity has arisen for her and her impressive grades of a B and two Cs reflect the hard work she has put in.

Originally Mia hoped that after Sixth Form she would attend a drama school but unfortunately did not get her place this year, however being very positive with this new unique chance she feels it was not meant to be for drama school at the moment.

She said "Dreams do not always need the top grades, I am excited to find out what the future holds for me.”
