Queen Alexandra Sixth Form College's closure has been revised with current students being able to complete their studies after bosses admitted "we got it wrong".
On Tuesday, May 9, the sixth form college confirmed that it would permanently close at the end of the academic year due to a "decline in numbers" over the last three years. The announcement came as 66 A-level pupils prepared to take their exams this month and left 49 first-year students in limbo about how they would complete their studies.
However, following an emergency meeting between the chief executive and chair of governors on Friday morning, the decision has been made to continue teaching at the college until 2024.
