A further nine special prizes were awarded, including a new Pinnacle Progress Prize, presented by Jayne Clarke OBE, CEO of The Pinnacle Learning Trust.
This prize was awarded to former Hathershaw College pupil, Hiral Kalyan for making excellent progress, achieving AAA in her A Levels in Biology, English Literature and Psychology.

"We celebrate the time our students have spent with us and we celebrate their futures.
"So it is with an incredible sense of pride that we welcome the class of 2024 onto the red carpet, into the Glitz and Glamour Gala and then off into the world.
