Praise for education system which offers students choice

Sat, 15 Aug 2015


The Isle of Man's education system has been praised for offering students a wide range of subject choice at A-Level.

This week they secured an overall pass rate of 98.2 per cent - equal to the highest ever pass rate set in 2010.
